The Muhammad Ali Center has recently published an online RealeBook, Find Your Greatness Within.  RealeBooks are family-friendly electronic books written and designed by a variety of people from parents, students, teachers, and others that are made available to download for free from RealeLibraries (Realelibraries are websites where schools, organizations, and businesses share their RealeBook creations).  In continuing efforts to spread the mission of the Ali Center, the ebook Find Your Greatness Within has been published in both English and Spanish.  It has been Muhammad’s dream to encourage people of all ages to find their greatness within and we hope this ebook will play a part in encouraging elementary and middle school students to pursue their dreams.

The ebook was a collaborative effort between Ali Center staff, Synthia Shelby from Jefferson County Public Schools Resource Teacher-Literacy and Daniel Stuber, a teacher at St. Xavier High School who translated the ebook into Spanish.  This project was made possible by Mark Condon and Literacy Commons who fostered the initiative to make picture books that showcase cultural institutions or sites.  The Kentucky RealeLibrary that features the cultural ebook collection was a collaborative effort between the Jefferson County Public Schools Cultural Consortium and the Louisville Writing Project.
