Big World of Little Dude was created by Cara Zelas, early childhood educator, Montessori teacher and children's author. She has spent years helping young children build the skills they need to connect, communicate and thrive.
Her approach is simple: children can learn kindness, friendship and resilience just like they learn their ABCs. Sometimes they just need someone to show them how.

"When the children knew that Cara and Little Dude were joining us, their faces lit up with excitement. The activities which emphasized various facets of kindness were fun and engaging. We loved having Cara and Little Dude in our classroom!"
"Cara is great at engaging our younger patrons — lessons are both intentional and fun. Little Dude has a wide appeal for multiple age groups and children walk away with a new kindness skill for their emotional toolkit."
"Cara and Little Dude are a dynamic duo our Kindergarten class were simply obsessed with! The books are engaging, the curriculum was easy to implement, and the multisensory approach to SEL really changed the way our class interacted with each other."
