Story Time With Michele! "Manjhi Moves a Mountain" read aloud for kids

It's Story Time with Michele! Thanks for joining me for a story read aloud, please take a moment to SUBSCRIBE to the channel. This story is about a real person who made a huge difference in the lives of everyone living in his community. Manjhi was frustrated and tired of the stark differences in the quality of life for those who lived in his village on one side of a mountain compared to those in the village on the other side. His motivation to do good for others inspired him to find a solution to the problems they faced. Despite the fact that it took him over 20 years to complete his task, he never gave up! A special THANK YOU to Creston Books for allowing me to share this wonderful, award-winning, picture book with all of you. Please visit their website for more details about the book, and purchase your very own copy! https://www.crestonbooks.co/manjhi

*About Story Time With Michele*
As a mom, reading is a priority for my family. I am very passionate about the importance of literacy. Did you know that 25 million children in the US cannot read proficiently? I have always loved reading books and I work hard to nurture that same love in young children. By sharing stories aloud I hope your kids will be encouraged to read more books and become little bookworms as they grow up! These stories are meant for anyone wanting a sweet, soothing story read to them - who doesn't enjoy that?!
On this read aloud channel you will find stories, read by Michele Lepe, for kids of all ages: early readers, kindergarteners, pre-schoolers, etc. This channel is filled with bedtime stories and interactive read along videos. I hope you will notice that I do my best to display all of the words on each page so that you are able to actually read along with me! I also link to relevant literacy activities for preschoolers via my Pinterest boards in each video description.
Many of you know me as Nina from the GoodNight Show so on my channel you will also find some clips of the time I spent as Nina and Star on the Good Night Show on Sprout (aka PBS Kids Sprout and UniversalKids)!
