Our close ally, Stephanie Taylor, has written a great book for children called I Can Change Everything. Our friends at Strong Arm Press have published it just in time for the holidays. Here's what Stephanie said about the book:
John,
I’m the co-founder of the Progressive Change Campaign Committee and Progressive Change Institute and a longtime activist. But you may not know I’m also the mom of three little girls.
I think a lot about how to raise my girls to be activists themselves. Their generation will have to fight through massive climate and social upheaval. I want to give them the tools to build a better future, and the confidence and courage to do it.
So I wrote a book for them (and all kids)!
I Can Change Everything, published by Strong Arm Press, teaches kids the power of their imaginations -- from changing their socks and shoes to changing the world. It’s a bright and fun story, with illustrations by Laura Brenlla. (Check out a few of the illustrations below.)
As I launch this book into the world, I would love your support. Please think about buying a copy for a child in your life. It would make a great holiday gift! You can also donate copies to local schools or women’s shelters.
You can order the book through your local independent bookstore (which I encourage). Or, order online directly from Strong Arm Press.
As I told a friend recently, the same optimism that drives my activism is what led me to become a parent in the first place -- the belief in a better future.
Let's give the next generation the vision and hope they need to change everything.
Thanks for being a bold progressive.
-- Stephanie
