Call to Action: Bilingual Book Project
BPB is pleased to partner with children’s book author, Elaine Harrison, to bring 3,600 books to migrant children in Chicago. Elaine Harrison’s books have been praised by leading educators and organizations from throughout the country, including The National Kindergarten Association and the Superintendent of Chicago Catholic Schools. These books were professionally translated by a native speaker/bilingual educator and were edited by Dr. Susan Polansky, Chair of the Department of Modern Languages at Carnegie Mellon University
