Princess Me
- Just published is a book based on a true story – one that every girl dreams about – about becoming a princess.
-
While at The Learning Experience® (TLE®), a national academy of early education for children aged 6 weeks to 6 years, Lydia, an African-American girl, shared with classmates that she wanted to be a princess. She was immediately told by her peers that she wasn’t “white enough” and her hair wasn’t “long enough” to be a princess. A deflated Lydia was comforted by TLE® center director Shelly Coss who heard about the incident and decided to go a step further and teach the youngsters that anyone can grow up to be anything they wanted to be regardless of race or hair length. Shelly even showed the class pictures of princesses from all over the world.
Lydia’s mother, Rita Hutchings, heard about the extra effort that was put forth by the TLE® Wayne, New Jersey, center staff which inspired her to write Princess Me: Every Girl Can Be A Little Princess.
In her book, Rita acknowledges The Learning Experience writing, “Many thanks [must go] to the staff at the Learning Experience Academy of Early Education who promote respect, acceptance and appreciation of the rich diversity of children from all cultures. They provide a nurturing, safe and happy environment exposing children to a wide array of cultural backgrounds at an early age, while encouraging an open-minded viewpoint for the future.”
As background, The Learning Experience® is the country’s fastest growing early learning academy for children 6 weeks to 6 years old with over 175 centers nationwide. With a greater national emphasis on educational development during the first six years of a child's growth, TLE® prepares children academically and socially via innovative scholastic and enrichment programs such as L.E.A.P® curriculum, a cutting-edge proprietary approach to learning which has 90 percent of TLE® children graduating preschool reading at a Kindergarten or greater level. To complement the academic portion, various enrichment programs crucial to advancing learning and overall balance will be discussed and demonstrated, such as baby yoga, music, physical fitness, manners and etiquette, philanthropy and Spanish language.

So In Style(TM) Barbie(R) Creator's Multi-Cultural Doll
Company Moves to Wall Street
- Former Mattel(TM) Doll Designer, Stacey McBride-Irby, and Her
New Line of Multi-Cultural Dolls Make History With Stock
Market Debut -
HOUSTON, Jan. 24, 2013 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- One World Holdings
(OTCBB:OWOO), parent company to The One World Doll Project, Inc.,
announced today that it has completed the process of taking the company
public and that FINRA has designated its stock symbol as "OWOO." Prior
to getting its stock symbol, the Company had filed a Registration
Statement with the SEC which had gone effective on December 19, 2012.
"We are excited about becoming a public company because this represents
a major milestone in setting the stage for One World to be a real
competitor in the doll and toy arena. This move will also provide
liquidity for our shareholders and facilitate future capital formation
and growth," stated Joanne Melton, CEO. "As a public company we expect
to make big steps forward in 2013 as we introduce The Prettie Girls!
OWP, our unique multi-cultural doll line, to a market that we believe
has been waiting for high quality dolls to represent true racial and
ethnic diversity," she added.
About The One World Doll Project
In her 15 years at Mattel(TM), Stacey McBride-Irby designed and created
countless fashions and concepts for the iconic Barbie(R) line. Most
notably, Stacey created an entire new line for the company, the So In
Style(TM) dolls, the first African-American Barbie dolls by Mattel
which, according to Stacey, "more closely represented contemporary
girls and young women in the diverse and dynamic urban community". Now
she is using her love of doll making and design to create dolls with
The One World Doll Project, Inc.
The One World Doll Project has developed an exciting line of
multi-cultural and fashion dolls that it expects will have a major
impact in the months ahead. The Prettie Girls! OWP doll line is unique
in the way they look, their backgrounds and their stories that capture
the essence of what every little girl can embrace and relate to. The
Prettie Girls! Ms. McBride-Irby, along with the One World Doll Project,
believes that little girls and their mothers are looking for images of
beauty and fashion that mirror the same colors, shapes and physical
characteristics that they themselves possess.
The overall vision of the company is to introduce a new way mainstream
dolls are designed, marketed and integrated into the fabric of America.
The One World Doll Project's core mission is to make one of the most
significant, positive cultural impacts on play and in the doll category
in recent history.
