Hellooooo READers!

And welcome back to school! Yayyyy! ... oh that's just mean.

Well anyway, you have arrived at WORD, the official blog of READ magazine. We haven't been around that much over the summer but we aim to be ever present throughout the school year. We will be posting lots of student writing here as well as extensions from READ magazine, literary and video links, book news, author interviews, etc. etc.

As soon as you get back into the swing of things, give us a holler at word@weeklyreader.com. We're here for you!

Here's to a great year!
