Sibling writing duo Amari and Cherelle Yarbrough and creators of the first of its kind early readers graphic novel series "The ElleRays", created Rays Up Read Up, a dramatic reading competition to inspire young readers to find their unique voice through the art of storytelling. Our literacy initiative focuses on igniting a love of reading for elementary school age children while fostering imagination and confidence.
The Rays Up Read Up, Dramatic Reading Competition brings the excitement of performance-based storytelling to elementary schools, promoting literary engagement through expressive reading. By blending literacy with the performing arts, this initiative helps children build confidence while developing a love for books.
