Allowing children to see themselves in a positive light through creative storytelling, allows them to build up their self-esteem whilst also developing a better understanding of their peers who differ to them, helping them build healthy relationships.
We were extremely excited to be able to donate books each to all primary schools in Lambeth and the response back has been heart-warming, with one school responding “I can’t tell you the amount of staff who actually welled up seeing the books, seeing themselves, and wishing they had these growing up but ever so grateful this generation has them now.”
“One child, one teacher, one pen and one book can change the world”
– Malala Yousafzai
The Woke Babies and Tangle Teezer teams shared mission is to ensure that books reflect the world we live in so that no child feels left behind and we’re looking forward to continuing that fight.
