About Us

At Roving Reader Leaders, our mission is to get kids actively engaged in reading, discussion and analysis in fun ways!

Teachers, parents and librarians can sign their young readers up for our club  (free) and subscribe to our Free KidLit Newsletter.

Through our club, young readers take part in in-person, online and phone KidLit Chats and learn how to do book reviews and author interviews. They earn Roving Reader Leader badges by doing book reviews and author interviews, sending us photos, and participating in book discussions on our social media.

See photos of and learn about our funding Roving Leader Readers on Our Roving Reader Leaders page.

The founders of Roving Reader Leaders, Lisa Cohn and her son, Michael, now 14, are book lovers and award-winning authors of the “Bash and Lucy” Children’s Book Series. At age 5, Michael was featured on the Today Show for his love of books and YouTube book reviews.

Lisa and Michael share their love of reading and writing with kids across the globe through their school visits, via Skype and in person.

Lisa is an award-winning writer and author whose parenting articles have appeared in The Christian Science Monitor, Huffington Post, Yahoo! Parenting, Brain, Child: The Magazine for Thinking Mothers, Parenting and other publications. Her books have been honored with awards from  Voices of Youth Advocates, Foreword, Mom’s Choice Awards and Parenting Publications of America.
