The Odyssey Junior Oracle features students’ original writing, artwork, and photographs from class. Children read aloud from the Junior Oracle, building their confidence in speaking while at the same time learning more about each other. Children are excited to be featured in the Junior Oracle and often proudly share copies with their extended family and teachers.

“The Odyssey Program pulled something out of me, something I didn’t know I had. It cracked open the shell I was hiding in and showed me that I can write, I can speak and I can share my thoughts and not fall apart. It helped me learn more about who I am and it made me realize I actually like poetry, that writing is a way of thinking and feeling and not apologizing about it.”
