Happy International Women's Day!

Happy International Women's Day! Two of my most admired women are Nancy Traversy and Tessa Strickland, co-founders of Barefoot Books over 25 years ago. Read on about Barefoot Books and these two remarkable women.
"Our mission is to:
Share stories, connect families, inspire children

"Founded by two young mothers in England in 1992 and based in Cambridge, MA, Barefoot Books has published 600+ books for children. Most importantly, over nearly a quarter of a century, Barefoot has put more than 20 million books into the hands of children around the world. With a mission to “Share Stories, Connect Families, and Inspire Children,” Barefoot is now leveraging its vibrant, timeless family brand with a social selling model that empowers women entrepreneurs."
"After a rigorous review process, Forbes has named Barefoot Books one of the Best Small Companies in America! The highly anticipated May 2017 announcement of Forbes’ second annual “Small Giants” list places Barefoot Books among 25 entrepreneurial companies that are seizing new opportunities and disrupting industries while maintaining sound business practices and impacting their communities. Noting a key differentiator between Barefoot Books and many other publishers, Forbes praised the power of the Barefoot brand:
“Perhaps most remarkably, [CEO Nancy] Traversy has defied conventional wisdom and created a publishing brand that parents and grandparents recognize, trust, and buy. They don’t buy one of the company’s books because of the author or the illustrator. They buy it because it’s a Barefoot Book.”
We are proud that Barefoot Books’ woman-owned and -run business with its vibrant company culture and open-book management has earned such a prestigious honor. This achievement would not have been possible without all the authors, illustrators, Barefoot team members, Ambassadors, parents, teachers, booksellers and other members of our community who have supported us over the years. We owe you our sincerest gratitude."

A Wrinkle In Time

I read A Wrinkle in Time, when I was an Early Childhood major at Kent State University as it was on my required reading list for my Children's Literature course.  I remember being curled up with this book in bed and getting in the fantasy.  Thinking it is time to reread it before the movie comes out.  Have you read it?  If so, do you want to re-read it? Are you going to see the movie?
