Based on the bestselling and award-winning book series 'A Kids Book About,' A Kids Company About is teaming up with The Jim Henson Company to create a new mixed-media series that targets families and kids ages six to 11. The book series was created based on the belief that "kids are ready to have challenging, empowering, and important conversations," and with its content, the books address everything from racism and school shootings to climate change.
The all-new mixed-media series is set to follow suit, offering a new way for kids to digest difficult yet important topics. The series will feature live-action segments, animation and puppetry vignettes to get conversations started on topics that are relevant to kids and families today.
A Kids Show About will be produced by The Jim Henson Company with Memory and Dan Ilani of A Kids Company About as executive producers.
