About iNK

iNK Think Tank is a nonprofit organization of award-wining children's nonfiction authors. Our mission is to provide children with accurate, engrossing nonfiction that nurtures the thirst for learning.
We accomplish our goal through:
1) Our free daily school-year Nonfiction Minute blog for teachers and students, where we post short illustrated written and audio essays about interesting real-world topics and include educator-written suggestions for teachers.

2) Our live interactive personal video conferences designed to convey the joy and the value of well-written narrative nonfiction and to train teachers and mentor students in the art and craft of good writing.
3) Our free database of 800 books that may be searched by topic and grade level so that teachers can find books that meet Common Core and other curriculum standards.
4) Our hybrid programs that include classroom sets of books, two hours of videoconferencing with the author and curriculum consultants and a chronical of the program via Google Classroom, which cover mandated curriculum content for K-12 students
