The Hawn Foundation, started by actress Goldie Hawn and dedicated to “creating a world where children thrive,” list Janai’s books as recommended reading for children, parents and teachers on its website (www.thehawnfoundation.org).

“I was attracted to the books because of the positive messages they convey to children,” says Marc Meyer, the foundation’s director of educational programs and initiatives. “This is very much in keeping with the foundational underpinnings of MindUP, the signature social and emotional learning program of the Hawn Foundation.”
