Meet the Authors
As reading tutors to elementary-aged students, the teens of Reach noticed that few children's books reflected their lived experience as youth of color. So they decided to take action and write their own. Now these D.C. teens are diversifying children's literature, one smart-fun-real-brave-bold story at a time.
Rico went to Eastern High School in Washington, DC when he authored his book. He likes to place basketball and baseball, and he is a Lead Tutor with Reach.
