Kids' Stories International is a unique initiative in children's programming, combining entertainment, education, and a global community spirit. Children around the world are learning how to write stories as a part of their school curriculum; many children illustrate these stories with drawings, creating little books. Using a digital animation technique, director, JC Little has made these stories come alive! Each episode is hosted by the super charming animated Planet Earth, the home we share. In addition to the 10 stories, there is a 4 minute interview with two teachers explaining how they use Kids' Stories International in their class.
