MORE ABOUT THE FILM
Right to Read presents the moving story of Michigan families attempting to secure the right to read for their children. Facing challenging circumstances -- like social inequity, Michigan's Read by Grade Three law, and limited access to books -- parents, educators and experts weigh in on how to solve the literacy crisis in Michigan. The goal? To encourage the joy of reading and promote childhood literacy at home. Right to Read is a WKAR original production.

Right to Read airs in mid-Michigan on Thursday, June 3, 2021, at 9:30 p.m. on WKAR-HD 23.1 and streaming.
