My Project

Books expose children to the stories of young activists from diverse cultures, helping them understand how kids from different backgrounds have fought for justice and change.

Children must know that they can be change makers in their communities and their voice no matter how small matters.

This book collection highlighting children’s activism, allows students to see that age and cultural differences don’t limit the impact one can have on the world.Books about activism show children how empathy, courage, and determination can lead to powerful social movements, inspiring them to believe in their ability to make a difference.

These stories teach children about the importance of standing up for what’s right, regardless of age or where they come from, promoting a sense of global citizenship.

Exposure to diverse cultural perspectives in books broadens children’s understanding of the world and fosters respect for people from different backgrounds, helping them become more compassionate and informed individuals.
