PROGRAM MANUAL

A TEACHER'S STORY

It began with a small article in Teaching Tolerance magazine, a little description of a program − children making books for children as a gift of friendship and peace. Initially I was intrigued and excited, until other thoughts came to mind − these kids are in refugee camps, war torn cities, famine-stricken communities, orphans, in need of food, medical care. I laid aside the article. As I watched my students and son over the course of several days, with their minds set free by stories that revel in the color and magic of pictures, feeling nurtured to imagine through books, new and deeper thoughts made to my mind. I came to realize the ″essentialness″ of nurturing the spirit, the power of the gift of a book and the power of creating something that these children across the planet might need.
