I have been asked to take the lead on my company’s International Day Of the Girl event. I would love to find an author, or really anyone - that is versed in public speaking about the importance early literacy- just to bring awareness about how so many girls aren’t educated all over the globe. I have been googling and googling and I’m finding people, but nothing that really fits this description- would you by chance have ANY leads on this? Jasmine Cone (734) 772-2648
