<h2>WHAT: “CLEARED FOR STORYTIME”</h2>
The three-author experience will give families the opportunity to meet&nbsp;women who have lived the stories behind the books.
Expect:
<ul><li>Meet-and-greets with the authors</li><li>Signed children’s aviation and military-themed books</li><li>Flight-suit dress-up and photo opportunities</li><li>Conversations about military aviation, STEM, service, &amp; careers</li></ul>
<h2>WHY</h2>
Women remain an important and growing part of the military and aviation communities, yet young people do not always have opportunities to meet women who have personally served, flown, led, and built careers in these fields.
<h2>EDUCATOR OPPORTUNITIES</h2>
Gracefully Global Group created the 11-time award-winning Captain Mamá bilingual aviation book series. This brand has been introducing children to aviation and STEM careers through engaging stories where Mama is an aviator, bilingually since 2013.&nbsp;
These authors create books and experiences that extend into classrooms, libraries, museums, military organizations, and community programs. Ask about:
<ul><li>School assemblies &amp; classroom visits</li><li>Aviation and STEM programming</li><li>Veterans Day, Women in Aviation &amp; Women’s History Month programming</li><li>Military history education</li><li>Writing workshops</li></ul>
Graciela and Sarah will also be presenting aviation-themed school programs in the Houston area in the days before the airshow. Inquire&nbsp;below.&nbsp;&nbsp;
