Discourse on Co-Creative Education Featured in LibraryBub Selection for October

LOS ANGELES, Nov. 3, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Co-creation has recently gained more attention in educational practice, according to a paper in the International Journal for Academic Development, and that has led to insights into advantages of co-creation for the psychosocial learning environment; for student motivation and metacognition; for the quality of the educational design; for equitable teaching and learning; and for overall satisfaction with learners and teachers. In Karen Chetwynd's new book Led by the Child: unlocking the power of Montessori for all, the author argues for a future in which "education is co-created with children, not imposed upon them". She tells compelling stories from her experience of education that prove how this approach "nurtures resilience, curiosity and leadership".

LibraryBub is an industry first. Established in 2015, it works in conjunction with all major libraries. It is dedicated to making strong, mutual connections between indie and small-press authors and an extensive network of libraries. The core commitment of the LibraryBub service is to help librarians to identify acclaimed books from the independent publishing sector. LibraryBub introduces thousands of librarians to bestselling and award-winning books from the independent publishing sector. These books hold immense potential for enhancing the lives of their readers. Novelist Vanda Symon recalls how her mother introduced her to "the wonders of books early on in life" and that "trips to the library to pick up a stack of them were frequent". She adds, "My first obsession with a book started at the library as a young kid, where I became addicted to The Berenstain Bears Almanac. I reissued that book so many times! The library helped fuel my love of novels set in Roman times and knights & castles, King Arthur and authors such as T.S White, Rosemary Sutcliffe, Ronald Welch, Mary Stewart…" Librarians enable writers to make that kind of difference to people's lives, and LibraryBub CEO Alinka Rutkowska considers it a privilege to support them in that role.
