Share Your Photos of the People and Places You Love Share Your Photos of the People and Places You Love
In February, the young readers in NPR's Backseat Book Club will read Shooting Kabul by N.H. Senzai. In the book, a boy named Fadi finds his voice — and the chance to find his lost little sister — through photography. Since Shooting Kabul is all about places, people and photographs, NPR is asking for kids' photographs of the people and places they love. Join in - take some photos of the people and places that are special to you and submit them to NPR. You can take a photo of someone close to you — a sibling, a grandparent or a teacher. Or, you can take a picture of one of your favorite spots — the garden outside your window, the favorite nook where you like to read, or the beautiful covered bridge near the river.
