ENGLISH / FRENCH
The Best of All Worlds is the first of its kind anywhere. It celebrates multilingualism in children's literature. This book is not only for children however. It is also for parents and grandparents who understand the value of teaching the little ones in their lives about other cultures, languages, ideas, and people.
It is fitting that The Best of All Worlds would have a home in Canada, in a country where we continually strive to make meaning of diversity, where we champion multilingualism and multiculturalism in our communities, our homes and our schools.
Seven Canadian authors wrote a children's story in their heritage language. Next, we translated each story (Japanese, Spanish, Russian, Portuguese, Arabic, Italian, Farsi) into English and French. We then went in search of talented Canadian illustrators to add their expertise to the mix.
We are proud to say that the Canadian Commission for UNESCO is one of our biggest supporters.
We have ONE book, 7 original stories, each translated into English and French, and beautifully illustrated. All original and all Canadian. This book makes a bold statement about diversity. It pushes the boundaries on how we teach ourselves and our kids about one another.
Let's get this book into as many Canadian homes as possible! Kids deserve to see that no matter their language, culture, or place of birth, we are equal.
