The Project aims at enriching teacher’s capacity to use literature in the classroom and to use creative activities in bringing this literature to life. Innovative approaches, such as art activities, cross reading, discussion, creative writing, exhibitions, drama and linguistic games are used to achieve this. 35 children’s books, including world and local classics, are used in this project. The books cover important issues that are portrayed through a “story” - diversity, tolerance, difference, respecting nature, dealing with life and death as well as gender.

Such a project becomes even more crucial in the current situation where closures and checkpoints threaten the whole educational traditional system while, through reading a child becomes a creative thinker and is able to pursue his lifelong learning process.
