About the Book

This book tells the story of a group of kindergartners and college students as they explore what it means to grow. Reading it, children will find out that growing includes learning about their bodies, where food comes from, and beautiful places in the world. The book is a culmination of "The Growing Project," a curriculum created by college students working in partnership with a kindergarten class. It is a celebration of children's voices and learners self-worth at every stage of development -- a narrative about and by young people who embark on a journey of discovery that connects their own health and future with that of the world. "I like it!" -AL, Thorne Kindergarten Student "It's awesome!" -JM, Thorne Kindergarten Student "How can we grow a better world? This questions turns a group of children into explorers - of their neighborhood and the neighborhoods of distant continents.

Delightful illustrations spark a story that will inspire kids and the grown-ups who care for them." -J.C Todd, grandmother and Lecturer in Creative Writing, Bryn Mawr College "Children will love this fanciful and informative book about what they do best: growing! All readers will find inspiration in how the book itself grew -- a vital collaboration among college students and kindergarten creating a curriculum, and a vision, to help the world." -Alice Lesnick, PH.D., Director/Bryn Mawr/Haverford Education Program To learn more about "The Growing Project," please visit: thejourneyofgrowing.wordpress.com All proceeds from the sale of this book will benefit Titagya Schools in Northern Ghana, a pre-school and kindergarten enterprise that shares the book's vision and values.
