An inspiring and empowering picture book about the small things kids do that have the potential to change the world!
Meet some of the world’s most beloved movers, shakers, scientists, activists, dreamers, and doers from the past and present who model what every childhood first can lead to! Neil Armstrong, Misty Copeland, Ruth Bader Ginsburg, and more were once kids―they grew up to lead us to the moon, dance in the ballet, and break barriers.
From first steps to solving puzzles and learning the alphabet, all the small things are only the beginning: they can lead to future activism and innovation that just might change the world!
Featuring fresh and accessible text paired with vibrant illustrations, We Move the World gives young readers a chance to see how much is possible just because of the things they already do. Includes robust backmatter that gives further context on each figure and historical moment, including the most recent COVID-19 pandemic.
How does a first step lead to walking on the moon, or a first word lead to changing the world?
- Inspiring Picture Book: Connects everyday childhood moments like stacking blocks and learning the alphabet to the amazing achievements of historical figures.
- Social Justice for Kids: Gently introduces important concepts through the stories of heroes like Martin Luther King Jr., Ruth Bader Ginsburg, and Colin Kaepernick.
- Women's History for Kids: Celebrates barrier-breaking women, from ballerina Misty Copeland and scientist Sylvia Earle to activist Malala Yousafzai.
- Empowering Book for Kids: A perfect read-aloud to show little dreamers and doers that their actions matter and that they have the power to move the world.
