Thank you for supporting California student authors and for making the time to read each story our kids put their hearts into. This work was made possible by the generous support of Councilwoman Michelle Chambers, the office of Assemblymember Mike Gipson, and the California State Librarian’s office.Un-mutable features three refreshing middle school voices from San Diego, CA who attend KIPP Adelante Preparatory Academy under the direction of, Principal Rachelle Minix. The authors participated in a rigorous 12-week virtual PHABB 5 writer’s workshop. The students were challenged with creating a short story that captured their inner-thoughts about the 2020 pandemic thus, Un-Mutable was born. Their stories will teach you how to be heard over the noise.
