International Dot Day Virtual Event 2024

Are you ready to make your mark?

Join FableVision, Reynolds Center TLC, and Candlewick Press in a VIRTUAL global celebration of creativity, courage, and collaboration: International Dot Day! In this event, students will meet Peter H. Reynolds–New York Times best-selling author and illustrator of The Dot–and his twin brother Paul A. Reynolds who will challenge everyone to believe in themselves and find the courage to “make their mark.” 

This year is the 15th anniversary of Dot Day! Fifteen years ago, beloved educator Terry Shay started this tradition in Iowa with his students. Now educators, librarians, students and creatives internationally partake in the celebration.
