Welcome aboard another riveting voyage through the pages of a culturally enriching children's book, "Big," by Vashti Harrison. Ever wondered how words can shape a child's self-esteem and self-worth? This New York Times bestselling author illustrates this journey with heartwarming and heartbreaking clarity. We delve into the story of a young girl navigating the world, where she is equally adored and belittled, and how these words mold her perception of herself.
In this episode, not only do we explore this compelling narrative, but we also engage in a meaningful activity. This activity encourages students to discard hurtful words and replace them with empowering affirmations. "Big" is more than just a captivating read; it's a catalyst for important social-emotional learning. So, whether they're in kindergarten or fifth grade, every child can find joy, empowerment, and a renewed sense of self-love in this magnificent tale. Vashti Harrison's work isn't confined to this book alone, and we will take a sneak peek into her other impactful narratives as well. Ready for an enriching episode? Let's dive right in!
