At the Morning Bookclub, our mission is to foster a love of reading and learning in young minds by providing a welcoming space where children and families can explore stories, connect with others, and grow together. We understand the critical role that literacy plays in a child's development—studies show that children who are read to regularly are 30% more likely to become proficient readers by the time they enter school. Through our morning book club, we aim to create a vibrant community of young readers, inspiring children to discover the magic of books, build lasting friendships, and cultivate a lifelong love of reading. With literacy rates in Texas hovering at just 36% for children reading at grade level by 4th grade, we are dedicated to supporting local authors, promoting diverse voices, and providing the resources and encouragement necessary to help all children succeed. Located in the heart of San Antonio, we are committed to nurturing creativity and empowering the next generation of readers.
