Tales & Tots with Special Guest Brady McCarthy

Join us for a heartwarming and inspiring Storytime in honor of World Down Syndrome Day, featuring guest reader Brady McCarthy! Brady McCarthy is a 22-year-old young man with Down syndrome who lives in Chappaqua, NY (formerly of Bedford, NY). He is an artist, author, advocate, and entrepreneur. His motto is “Believe You Can!” Together with his younger sister, Alexx, they wrote two SuperBrady books and created an online store: SuperBradyShop.com, where they share Brady’s art on Wall Prints, T-Shirts, Tote Bags, Books, Games, and Stickers. Brady’s mission is to spread the message that all people deserve to be included and that we all have more things in common than we have differences. By sharing his various talents, he hopes to inspire children to see the abilities in themselves and others and to believe that anything is possible. Brady and Alexx’s book, SuperBrady: A Story of Inclusion, follows the life of a little boy born with Down syndrome as he uses his superpowers to make friends and to never give up! SuperBrady also gives tips on how anyone can become a Superhero of Inclusion by being kind and accepting to others. As part of BOCES Art in Education program, Brady puts on assemblies for elementary school children throughout Westchester County, where he shares his book and answers questions.

All ages are welcome to this empowering celebration of diversity and the limitless potential of every individual!
