Keynote: What We Make Visible to Children: Art, Storytelling, & Picturebooks

Mar 5, 2025

10:00am – 11:00am CT

So many choices go into making a children's book, and all of these choices help shape the way our kids understand and engage with the world around them. The points of view of storytellers themselves are also integral to understanding the world around them. How do we decide what to make visible? And what are the consequences of our decisions? In this session, join leaders in children's publishing as they discuss how broadening the range of stories in children's books, like picture books Fauja Singh Keeps Going and A Vaisakhi to Remember, nurtures empathy and encourages new ways of seeing the world.
