Shake up your story

A digital children’s book lets families shake the iPad to change the parents’ identities, challenging fixed ideas about family and storytelling. Inspired by a childhood spent among diverse religious traditions and witnessing moments of social tension, the project highlights how early exposure to multiple viewpoints sparks empathy. By reimagining even classic stories like Indian independence from different perspectives, creative tools can help children distinguish fact from bias. Art becomes a way to teach kids to see the world through many lenses, building understanding from the start.
