Sylv Chiang: Allies Are Superheroes

a child reads while walking around the earth accompanied by animals

Join Sylv Chiang for an interactive story time with a focus on how we can all be allies. Sylv will introduce her 2024 CBC Kids Reads winning picture book, Still My Tessa, by sharing how the story is based on her own family. After we hear the story and talk about how the main character, Evelyn, is an ally to her non-binary sibling, we will share examples of allyship from the participants’ everyday lives. Finally, to reinforce the concept of allyship, everyone will have a chance to draw their own face on a superhero template and explain how they can be an ally.
