"I want to thank the Legacy Project for providing opportunities for students to connect with family members and older adults they admire. Each year, I enter students in your annual Listen to a Life Essay Contest. They come away from the experience learning important life lessons as well as information they hadn't realized about their grandparents or grandfriends. Most hear advice about the value of education and making positive choices. This is a wonderfully meaningful experience for young and old alike."

Allison Ashworth, ON

"I did a presentation of Dream to my middle school students using your materials. The kids still keep coming up to me and asking if they can see the illustrations again. I even heard some of them repeating 'Dream a dream with me' at lunch today. This project has made a huge impression on my students!"
Tamara Wolpowitz, Malta

"We've used Dream for our school-wide theme. The principal read it to all the students and our display cases are filled with ideas from the book. Your project has made a huge difference to our students, staff, parents, and community."
Angie Smith, AB

"Our school created a play based on the Dream book as part of a three-year anti-bullying project. We have a population of around 345 students and everyone worked together to make 1500 origami Dream Stars! It was an awesome experience for all. Some students wrote about hoping to have more time with Mom, or about parents not being together, or about their desire to do their best in school, or about something they could do in the community. The stars now hang proudly in each classroom."
Paola Cherrier, ON

"As an inner city school we have many challenges. We've used your project with our whole school, including parents. The ability to dream opens doors for our students and sends a very caring message. Students need to plan their lives, dare to dream, and then as a community we can help them commit and work together to bring their own personal dreams to fruition."
Kelly Code-McNeil, NS

"Dream is an inspiration not only to children but to educators as well. I use this book in my classroom and the connections to all strands of the curriculum are endless. Your website has a very comprehensive list of activities around the book that really work to inspire children and adults. This project truly transcends age and reminds us that we should never give up on our dreams!"
Susie Stamatopoulos, ON

"Staff and students are still raving about author Susan Bosak's visit to our school. Susan is such a dynamic presenter and knew exactly how to adapt her material to the different grades. The follow-up activities on your website mean we're taking what she started and running with it."
Eileen Arruda, ON

"We held our first – and VERY successful – grandmother-granddaughter program. We used the book Something to Remember Me By which was read aloud by a local children's librarian. Each grandmother-granddaughter pair took home a book from the program. We took photos of each pair and they decorated frames for the photos. Of course we had refreshments and lots of informal visiting. Thank you so much for the book and website that prompted the idea for our program. It will be the first of many intergenerational programs!"
Kit Huggard, Adirondack Girl Scout Council, NY

"This really is fantastic! I've ordered the complete Across Generations 4-kit series. I'm looking forward to using the materials with my fourth graders as soon as possible. Thanks!"
Dina Pomeranz, NY

"I ordered the Across Generations Starter Set and we've just completed a family history unit based on your materials. We decided to bring the project to a closure by inviting parents to an evening Open House which would highlight all the activities we had completed. It was an enormous success! In my 25 years of teaching I have never received as many compliments about a unit of study as I did that night. The next morning the comments continued to come in through thank you cards and e-mails. Parents, and many grandparents, were thrilled with all that the students learned, and the kids thoroughly enjoyed it too. Thank you for such a great project!"
Heather Pedersen, BC

"What an inspiring project! The materials are top quality. I love them! I've ordered a copy of all the activity kits for each of our 15 centers across the state."

Congratulations on the production of such extensive and worthwhile materials."
