⬇️ Author Rina Singh shares about their picture book BAREFOOT SKATEBOARDERS.

"This is the perfect picture book for 

✨children and young readers who enjoy engaging and uplifting stories; 

✨educators and librarians who are looking to introduce children to stories of cultural diversity, social change, and the power of sports; 

✨parents who want to expose their children to inspiring real-life stories that promote inclusivity; 

✨and skateboarding enthusiasts who will find it fascinating that their favorite sport transformed a remote village in India."

"This book can also be used for 

📚classroom discussions on no matter how humble our beginnings, we all have the capacity to create positive change in our communities; 

📚cultural awareness- to introduce students to the cultural and social dynamics of rural India and fostering an understanding of different lifestyles; 

📚creative writing- encourage children to write their own stories about overcoming obstacles or sportsmanship;

📚physical education and sports- teachers can organize a skateboarding workshop or demonstration to introduce students to the sport; 

📚and the story can be used to discuss global issues like poverty and inequality and how little acts of activism can bring about significant changes. Students can think about how they can make their communities better..."
