Write Our World
An online library of eBooks created by kids for kids
An Innovative Global Collaboration
Write Our World works with children to publish bilingual ebooks about their cultures, using their native languages, to be featured in an online library. We also reach out to schools to build our library patronage and provide teachers with guidance about how to use this valuable resource. Our work is inspired by the emergence of collaborative online educational innovations that connect students from all over the world. Write Our World provides an accessible and inspiring platform that sparks cultural pride in the younger generation and keeps language and cultural identity alive.
eBooks Document Childrens' Cultures
This book is written by Navajo children in New Mexico about their cultural tradition of making jewelry.
eBooks are Bilingual with Audio
Having content presented through both written and oral language makes the story accessible to all and an excellent resource for language learning.
eBooks can be Collaboratively Written
Reflecting on one's culture, then co-creating a story with another child provides a meaningful cross-cultural experience and avenue for literacy development.
Write Our World
Join us in creating a space where children's cultures and languages can be celebrated and shared!
