Children's author, conservationist and creator of the Kindness Is Everything Podcast
Anitha Rao-Robinson received her Bachelor of Commerce from Queen’s University and worked as an accountant for twenty-four years before trading numbers for words. Anitha is passionate about environmental awareness and hopes to continue to spread change through her books and her podcast.
On her podcast, Anitha shares inspiring stories of people who have been kind to animals, the environment, and people. She hopes these stories show others there is no such thing as an act of kindness that is too small, especially for the animal or person receiving that kindness. For them, it means everything.
The podcast is available on all podcasting platforms, such as Apple and Google, as well as on her website.
Anitha is available for school presentations to talk about her books, conservation, kindness, and of course the art and fun of writing.
Presentation One is geared to students in grades one to three where I share photos from my travels, age-appropriate information about the animals, their welfare, their relationship with local communities in Sumatra and India, and read my picture book called A FAMILY FOR FARU This book is about a young boy, an orphaned rhino and their journey across the African savannah to find the rhino a new family.
Presentation Two is geared to students in grades four to six where I share similar photos from my travels along with age-appropriate information about animal welfare, conservation and the intricacies involved in building sustainable relationships with local communities.
These two presentations focus on the Ontario Social Studies curriculum goal of “being responsible stewards of the Earth by developing an appreciation and respect for both natural and human environments and communities.”
Presentation Three is geared to students in grades one to three where I read my upcoming picture book, SARI SISTERS, a story about the tight-knit bond between sisters as they navigate adolescent milestones and the beauty of updating traditional customs for a modern audience.
This presentation offers students an opportunity to explore “a variety of traditions within their families and their local communities, including those followed by other diverse groups within their communities to help them develop an understanding of how these traditions contribute to and enrich their own community and Canadian society.”
