Peaceable Stories is a statewide, six-hour training program for early childhood educators offering high-quality children’s books, accompanied by an Activity & Resource Guide, designed to stimulate meaningful conversations about conflict and peace. Participants read and discuss the books, and take part in related exercises and activities, in preparation for using the materials with young children. Born to Read is made possible through funding from the Helen and George Ladd Charitable Corporation, the Morton-Kelly Charitable Trust, We the People, Jane’s Trust, The Bingham Program, Virginia Hodgkins Somers Foundation and through private donations.
