Testimonials

"As a Torontonian, and a citizen of the 21st century, I was drawn to The Best of All Worlds because of its diversity.  I want to expose my children to the many beautiful languages and cultures in the world, even if we are only able to read in English.  As a librarian, I encourage parents to read to their children in their mother tongue and have their children read to them in English.  This book is a celebration of language and art."
Naomi Fisher, Toronto Public Library

"The Best of All Worlds is a unique and inclusive book to share with many. It is a true reflection of the multicultural make-up of Canada and a great addition for any school or public library!"
Lisa Lipson, Brampton Library

« L’introduction du livre a suscité en moi de la curiosité, avant même de le lire. Ensuite quelle merveille de découvrir les contes écrits en plusieurs langues et toutes ces personnes d’origine multiculturelle impliquées dans sa réalisation!   Un livre porteur d’espoir, de rêves, riche en culture, en imagination, en valeurs, et plus encore. En découvrant les contes quoi faire que de vouloir le faire découvrir aux petits et aux grands!  Le livre est à l’image réelle de nos écoles.  Pour moi, rien que la découverte du titre du livre en est une source de motivation. »
Majda, enseignante au Conseil Viamonde

The goal of this educational resource is to support teachers in fulfilling their role of fostering an inclusive, safe space in the classroom. This resource is inspired by the multilingual book, The Best of All Worlds/Le meilleur monde imaginable, and is not only for language teachers but for all teaches who want to have an inclusive classroom. Given how important it is to have each student represented in the learning environment, all teachers are encouraged to find connections between their students and the learning material.

This activity guide supports FSL teachers in fostering a culturally responsive classroom environment by linking the multilingual book, The Best of All Worlds/Le meilleur monde imaginable to expectations from the Ontario French as a Second Language curriculum. This resource provides all of the fiches pédagogiques that will guide students in their development of listening, speaking, reading and writing competencies. Students will use the fiches pédagogiques at the literacy centres to develop language learning strategies, and work towards the final action-oriented task. Each of the seven stories has been organized into seven different literacy centre modules.
