Literature has the potential to transform. The clever twists and turns of a masterfully written novel, can transform young sleepy minds into problem-solvers and bridge-builders. Literature in the hands of a master teacher can become the power that transforms hopelessness into hope, uselessness into direction, darkness into light, takers into givers, and fear into courage. Educators become transformers when they put the right book-power into the hands of a child who needs strength in skills, focus, or character. Story characters take on the roles of transformers as their choices change the lives of friends, family, and community around them. Transformers has it all!

Author Suzy Red is a master teacher with vast experience in the innovative reconstruction of public schools. She believes that an over-emphasis of testing in our public schools has dumbed down the curriculum and sucked the fun from classroom experiences. Growing numbers of teachers and librarians across the USA who use her Kids Wings materials can testify that TEST SCORES RISE when FUN, AUTHENTICITY, and CHALLENGE is reinjected into the curriculum through high level problem solving, literature, music, kinesthetic activities, research, laughter, and writing. Her workshops fill up fast, and participants come out with a new sense of inspiration, excitement, and hope!

At Kids' Wings, God is the Wind beneath our wings.
