Your kids are about to meet Jett. And by the end of Saturday's Storytime, they'll understand responsibility, kindness, and why caring for others matters.

Author Katina Lett doesn't invites kids to live the story along with Jett. After the reading, your children explore what empathy actually looks like in their lives.

They learn how their everyday actions ripple into the world.

Saturday, October 10 | 10:30 AM in the Change Agent Adventure gallery.

Comment "ADVENTURE" below for 3 lessons waiting for your children this Saturday when author Katina Lett reads "Jett Gets a Pet" right here in the Change Agent Adventure gallery.

Through Jett's journey, young readers discover what it really means to look out for those around you.

But here's the best part: after the reading, it gets interactive. Kids don't just hear the story. They explore what empathy and compassion actually look like in their own lives. They think about how everyday actions can make a difference in the world.

Perfect for elementary-aged children and families who are ready to engage with stories that matter.

Saturday, October 10 | 10:30 AM at the National Center for Civil and Human Rights.
