Read Afghanistan

HTAC is proud to sponsor the development and distribution of an original series of illustrated storybooks written especially for our school children. (See our shop)

The stories take place in present day Afghanistan, feature fictional children from our schools, their families, and other key characters, all woven into delightful tales that are a joy to  read.  Ideas for new stories are developed by HTAC staff and partners based on feedback from our teacher trainers, teachers, and children at our model schools.  Sufficient copies of each storybook are provided to school libraries for children to read or check them out and share with their families.
Our stories are written in both Dari and English, complimenting bilingual learning sessions.  Each storybook is designed to provide children with interesting stories to read while introducing important values and lessons that can be discussed in the classroom as well as shared with parents and family members.
