SUMMARY:L. AlHathloul\, U. Mishra-Newbery & R. Green | LOUJAIN DREAMS OF SUNFLOWERS
DESCRIPTION:Click here to register for this virtual event. \n“I know I will fly. Not immediately\, but definitely.” \nEvery night Loujain dreams of flying to the carpet of a million sunflowers. She dreams of the deep blue of the sky\, the green of the stems and leaves\, and the yellow of flower petals. But Loujain lives in a place where girls aren’t allowed to fly\, so she will never get to see the magnificent colors of the field of sunflowers in person.

Based on the true story of Loujain AlHathloul and her successful campaign to lift Saudi Arabia’s ban on women driving\, Loujain Dreams of Sunflowers: A Story Inspired by Loujain AlHathloul reminds us to strive for the changes we want to see—and to never take for granted women’s and girls’ freedoms. \nRegistrants will receive a link to a downloadable teacher’s guide. \nLina Alhathloul is a women’s rights activist and the sister of Loujain AlHathloul. On behalf of Loujain\, Lina appears in the media and international events. This is her debut book. \nUma Mishra-Newbery is a global social justice and women’s rights leader. She is the former executive director of Women’s March Global. This is her debut book. \nRebecca Green is the bestselling illustrator of the picture book Becoming a Good Creature and the author/illustrator of How to Make Friends with a Ghost. \nA Women’s History Month event for children ages 5-10\, their families\, and interested adults
