Living Library

I became to know about Living Library from a morning news show.    

To make it short, people are books at this library.  You visit, you select a book, which is a person, and you can talk to he/her.  Books (people) are varied in age, sex and cultural background.  

The Living Library was born in Denmark, and it is spreading in Europe.  I was amazed about this simple and unique idea.  It is the great invention to make a peace.  I also believe that getting to know other people is the most important education for kids.

Moreover, I am impressed of people who have organized this library.  Easy to think of an idea, but it is so hard to make it actually happen. 

The good news is Living Library is going to be happened in Kyoto, Japan as a two-day event.  

You know what?  Kyoto is new New York in Japan.  People with various backgrounds are gathered there.  It will be so exciting to have the Living Library in Kyoto.
