Dream team Alexandra Strick and Steve Antony follow up the incredibly important book You Can! with a second truly inclusive and joyous book bursting with positivity and inspirational ideas on how to make a difference.
Another unique, direct collaboration with kids, this called upon real children who shared their ideas of hopes, dreams and plans for making our world a better, kinder, safer, greener, healthier, more colourful and more equitable place to live. And of course, the holy grail of a world full of books!
With contributions from hundreds of children, we join 15 of them (the young editorial team) as they share their ideas for the We Can! Festival - a creative celebration of the sort of world they hope to live in. In full fancy dress, the children share smiles and offer helping hands, accepting everyone just as they are. Suggesting random acts of kindness, with green activities, seed planting and much more, they encourage us to think about how we can live in harmony with nature and each other.
By all playing our part, WE CAN! make this a world we are proud of. And I for one, am all in!
What kind of world do children want to live in? Can we all come together to make a difference and make our world a better, safer, greener, kinder place? YES, we can!
