"The Storybook Journey: Pathways to Learning through Story and Play" is based on a solid understanding of how children develop. It is intended to inspire practices that support and enhance the growth of each individual child within the context of the group through children's stories. The suggested starting place in the journey is selection and discussion of a story from children's literature (its main ideas, concepts, significant aspects, appeal, and special meaning to individual children) and a brainstorming of ideas that will link facets of the story to the lives of the children. Teachers link the experiences in the classroom around the story concepts, careful observation of the children, and the gathering of necessary props and materials for the facilitation of the journey. The connections to the child's home, community and classroom play a critical role. Some children, such as those with autism, may create an inner world around a struggle or a story of struggle. Through the stories they choose, we may hear or see a glimpse into their world and learn how to move closer to support them. The emotional stability nurtured by caring adults in their lives allows children the freedom and energy they deserve to be able to concentrate, engage, learn, follow through and enjoy the world that is out there for them to explore. When families are a part of the Storybook Journey process, children experience the enriching and vital daily life extensions of the stories beyond the classroom. The Storybook Journey is neither a unit plan detached from the lives of children, nor a series of recipes developed by adults. Its uniqueness lies in its intention to give teachers enough content and inspiration that their own creativity and enjoyment of the Storybook Journey process will carry them, the children, and the children's families to new and interesting avenues of learning.

Lady Liberty has welcomed immigrants to New York for more than one hundred years-but she's never traveled beyond her island. She's curious to see the country that has become home to the millions who have passed beneath her torch. She wants to go on an old-fashioned road trip! So one foggy morning, the giant Lady tiptoes off her pedestal and begins her journey. Down alleyways, along railroad tracks, through cities and small towns, across deserts, and over mountains, she greets surprised and delighted Americans.

". . . a wonderful teaching tool for those who are welcoming refugees into their community."—The New York Times With haunting echoes of the current refugee crisis this beautifully illustrated book explores the unimaginable decisions made as a family leave their home and everything they know to escape the turmoil and tragedy brought by war. This book will stay with you long after the last page is turned. From the author: The Journey is actually a story about many journeys, and it began with the story of two girls I met in a refugee center in Italy. After meeting them I realized that behind their journey lay something very powerful. So I began collecting more stories of migration and interviewing many people from many different countries. A few months later, in September 2014, when I started studying a Master of Arts in Illustration at the Academy of Lucerne, I knew I wanted to create a book about these true stories. Almost every day on the news we hear the terms "migrants" and "refugees" but we rarely ever speak to or hear the personal journeys that they have had to take. This book is a collage of all those personal stories and the incredible strength of the people within them.
