Examples of Classroom Fun and Celebration for Multicultural Children’s Book Day 2018!

March 3, 2018 by Valarie Budayr

We’ve invited all of our classrooms and supporters to celebrate The Big Day anytime during 1/22 and 1/27 and we’ve already had some educators and organizations share their ReadYourWorld fun here. The buzz around this event is mind-blowing and we felt compelled to share even more fun images and examples of educators using #Readyourworld to educate Global Citizens:

Sarah Fisk from the Orange County (Orlando) Library System reached out to use in September to share their plans for Local Author Festivals in honor of Multicultural Children’s Book Day! The library had a signing-only author festival with 6 Florida authors from 2 to 4 pm. They also had Crystal Sullivan, the library’s lead storyteller, do a mini storytime for children at 2 and 3pm.

Multicultural Children’s Book Authors showed their support during Orange County Library System’s MCBD event.

Amazing lesson for Multicultural Children’s Book Day!! The book 10 Gulab Jamuns and the sweet treat made with @CampbellOutside were a huge hit with our class! Many thanks to author @SAcharya7 for sharing the book with us! #ReadYourWorld @CampbellAPS @APSVirginia pic.twitter.com/f8MrNsKHtp

Filling the Void in Children’s Media By Jeni Lee Chapman of Gokul World

January 24, 2018 by Valarie Budayr

Where are the models of relatable kids from diverse cultural backgrounds?

By Jeni Lee Chapman, Co-author of Gokul Village and the Magic Fountain and Co-Founder of Gokul Workshops LLC

The power of coming together with a shared mission produces truly amazing and impactful results. My co-founder, Bal Das and I planted this seed a little over a year ago and started this journey together. In September we published our first book and announced the launch of a new concept for children’s media called Big Bold Beautiful World Media. Our mission is to use creativity and innovation to build stories, products, and experiences that empower the social-emotional learning of global generations. As Maya Angelou beautifully wrote, “we are more alike my friends than we are unalike.” [Read more…]
