What we do

A full literacy ecosystem, not just a book.

Grove Learning Group combines children’s publishing, author visits, literacy resources, community pop-ups, and school partnerships into one clear mission: helping children connect reading with identity, confidence, imagination, and real-world possibility.

Publishing
Culturally affirming picture books and companion learning materials.
School Visits
Author talks, read-alouds, writing prompts, and student-centered conversations.
Community Programs
Pop-ups, book bundles, family literacy moments, and outreach partnerships.
“Your visit was an absolute success and added immense value to our current unit. I was incredibly impressed by how deeply the students engaged with you. Seeing them entirely present, with no phones in sight, and eagerly asking follow-up questions was a testament to how much your story resonated with them.”
— Jacqueline Birruete Soto, 10th Grade Teacher

Trusted by readers, educators, and local partners.

Grove Learning Group has brought culturally affirming children’s literature into classrooms, community events, book fairs, pop-ups, and family literacy spaces across Stanislaus County and the Central Valley.

Our work is built for the child holding the book, the teacher leading the conversation, the parent reading aloud at home, and the community partner trying to get more books into more hands.
