Our Dare to Draw Bunchbrary
Our January Dare to Draw project presents an opportunity for you to talk to you kids about the issues that kids living in Africa face on a daily basis. From different cultural traditions to the Rights of a Child to dealing with HIV/AIDS, here are a few picks from the Stephen Lewis Foundation that’ll teach kids a bit more about their brothers and sisters in Africa:
Eyewitness Books: Africa by Yvonne Ayo (1995)
Packed full of interesting pictures and facts, Eyewitness books are known for being sort of like mini museums on paper. This is a visual guide to African culture that touches on ancient crafts, secret societies, and the journey’s of slaves from Africa to North America. For grade 3 and up.
Jamari’s Drum by Eboni Bynum and Jackson Roland (2004)
