"On September 15th, over a million children and adults around the globe will celebrate International Dot Day - a grassroots "creativity & courage" movement, which has generated support around the globe, from participants in all 50 U.S. states, on all seven continents, in 75 countries, and even on the International Space Station. Inspired by Boston-area author/illustrator Peter H. Reynolds' classic "storybook for all ages" The Dot, International Dot Day inspires young and old to embrace the power of personal creativity to change the world.
"It's so exciting to see The Dot trigger this kind of worldwide movement - especially in schools where creativity is too often squeezed out of the schedule," said Peter H. Reynolds, creative education champion and New York Times #1 best-selling author/illustrator of books about creativity and learning, including The North Star, The Museum, and his Creatrilogy series (The Dot, Ish and Sky Color). "Teachers know that it's a great way to start off the school year and invite students to experience the incredible power of creativity - to discover, to express themselves, to problem-solve, to invent, to change the world in positive ways.""
