| Publisher Description: There is power in the word PROUD. "King Khalid is Proud" explores how affirming it can be when someone tells you that they are proud of you. But imagine just how empowering it is when you do something that makes you proud of yourself - This theme is what is explored in this awesome book. In this inspiring book, King Khalid has a favorite pastime that keeps him up past his bedtime. After his father reinforces the rules and makes him go to bed on time, King Khalid finds a creative way around the rules that ultimately makes everyone proud. This is a great STEM book to get your child interested in coding. This book also champions the value of creating vs. consuming, because it encourages children who love playing video games to consider what it would take to develop their own. "King Khalid is Proud" author, Veronica N. Chapman, is also the author of the beloved children's book "I Know I Can ," which is also available in Spanish and Brazilian Portugese, " Yo s que Puedo " and "Sei que vou conseguir " As an HBCU graduate (Spelman College), one of Veronica N. Chapman's goals is to make sure her readers feel the same type of empowerment and affirmation that students feel on HBCU campuses. |
