The new JR - Inside Out Project book is out! ‘How old I am?’ published by Phaidon, features 100 people from 100 different countries. Through portraits and stories, kids aged 4-8 are encouraged to count from 1 to 100 in a new way. The book is an easy read for both parents and early learners, and makes for a great conversation starter about where kids were born, where they want to grow up, and who they might want to be when they get older. Thank you to everyone that participated! #insideoutproject #jr #phaidon #books https://www.instagram.com/p/CPEQmO9DSjG/?utm_medium=tumblr
