#14: Guest: Michael Bitz, Founder and Director of the Comic Book Project. Josué and Michael discuss how a group of kids in the back of a classroom drawing Pokémon characters, and Michael asking them to add word bubbles to meet a writing requirement, eventually turned into an international literacy initiative. The Comic Book Project combines creativity, the arts, and academic learning to help kids write and publish comics all over the world.
