Together with Marc de Bel, ambassador for literacy, we created a truly special book: the Dictionary for Little Illiterates.
A literal black book, filled entirely with black pages — a statement against the decline of reading among young people and a tribute to the power of language and stories.
Marc will present the book on Sunday, October 26, at Boektopia, where it will also be available for sale.
All proceeds will be used to rescue books from destruction. Books that would otherwise be discarded, shredded or burned will, thanks to the vicious square, find a new life in schools.
Those who read, celebrate, live a thousand lives and eventually find themselves.
Aurora is proud to support this initiative. As a producer of stationery, we believe in the power of reading, learning and creating meaning. This project brings that belief beautifully to life.
