Educators often talk about books being "mirrors and windows." Books can be mirrors, reflecting a child's own experience back to them, providing reassurance that they are not alone. Books can also be windows, allowing children to peek into lived experiences completely different from their own. Both types of representation are vitally important in helping children develop their understanding of the world.Picture books can also be tremendous tools to help children process difficult experiences in life, and to develop an early framework for social justice.
Join Kate Snyder, owner of Plaid Elephant Books, for a conversation about the power of picture books. This is a FREE program, hosted at the Art Center of the Bluegrass as part of their Lunch with the Arts series. Drop-ins are welcome, but you are encouraged to register via the Art Center website so they know how many people to expect.
