WHY was Kids’ News NYC created?

One day in October of 2015, Waverly created a news article (under her pen name Abigail Jones) after walking around her neighborhood and discovering what was quite possibly the city’s spookiest Halloween home.  Her mom looked around for a place to submit it, surprisingly couldn’t find anything except for creative fiction sites, so she decided to create a newspaper for kids, BY kids, herself.  This is for all the fabulous city kids out there who are doing more in one week than their parents have done in their entire childhoods…you have such amazing lives and opportunities – notice them, appreciate them, live them, and write about them!
