The nonprofit I'm Your Neighbor Books (IYNB)—an organization that curates
and shares immigration and new generation children's books—has long wanted
to break down the multilingual barrier.

They have done so with a book that could easily depict the journey of
Ukrainian families.

**NOW IN UKRAINIAN**
With full permission from the publisher, IYNB worked with Ukrainian college
students to translate and record an "audiobook" of the picture book STORY
BOAT (Tundra Books) into Ukrainian.

“Переказ і запис книги STORY BOAT були зроблені трьома українками, щоб дати
надію там, де вона потрібна.”
—Liza Pedash

"The STORY BOAT translation and recording was created by three Ukrainian
girls to give hope where hope is needed.”
—Liza Pedash


**MAKE YOUR OWN UKRAINIAN EDITION**
You can transform your own copy of STORY BOAT into a Ukrainian edition with
a free PDF kit from IYNB. The kit has a QR Code label to print and paste
into the front endpapers of the book. When scanned, the QR Code leads to
the read aloud. Get the kit here:

**WIN STORY BOAT**
IYNB is also giving away 50 copies of STORY BOAT in celebration. Look for a
chance to win a single copy at the bottom of this page:
