KisReads.com is a website that features information about many children's books and authors, and some related games. The website was founded in 1996 by Carol Fitsgerald. The site grew in popularity as more people started reading Harry Potter and turned to this site for the latest information on the series by J.K. Rowling because Kidsreads updates its information weekly. Its mascot is a worm named Booker T. Worm (according to the website, Booker Text Worm), a parody of both Booker T. Washington and the bookworm.
