Don't Forget That Day

Don't Forget That Day Launch Party


Don't Forget That Day, the new book from the students at KIPP STRIVE Academy, debuts on Saturday, September 4th! Join us from 11 am - noon that day for the launch party at the Decatur Book Festival.

Do you like details? Why, they're right here!


Back in the Spring, 17 professional writers and the Wren's Nest staff met 1-on-1 with the 5th graders at KIPP STRIVE Academy. The students learned to craft an important family story.


The KIPP Scribes will be on hand to sign copies of Don't Forget That Day launch party! Ice cream sandwiches will be served.


Can't make the party? Purchase your copy of Don't Forget That Day right here.
