The Walk, a wonderful children’s book by Winesome Bingham and illustrated by E. B. Lewis, offers a simple yet profound introduction to young audiences about the importance of participating in our democracy by taking the walk to vote. It’s the perfect story for highlighting the impact individuals can make by making their voices heard and engaging with their community. The journey takes courage and effort and can be very difficult, but when done with friends and family, it is also fun!
A day that focuses on hope, as people use their voices to advocate for what could be a better world. It is emphasized throughout the book that although two voices may be different and disagree, when we walk together, we make it much farther than when done alone.
(Ages 4-8)
