Meet the Joobles! introduces readers to a lovable gang of joyful playmates that dance, skip, and romp throughout the day. This charming story, told in English and Spanish, follows the Joobles on happy adventures until it is time to say goodnight. The light-hearted rhyme offers a bilingual twist to the traditional Teddy Bear, Teddy Bear song.
Meet the Joobles! was written by Monica Brown, the award-winning author of many books for children. Monica fell in love with the Joobles and wanted to bring them to life. Playfully illustrated by Emily Balsley, whose passion for bringing color and shapes together in a wonderfully whimsical style captured the essence of the Joobles. The book was translated to Spanish by Cinthya Miranda McIntosh.
Meet the Joobles! is a great bedtime story and a fun way to introduce a second language.
"This is a picture book that...engages young readers with a catchy rhythm and pleasing rhymes." -Kirkus Reviews
Pure organic cotton
All of the good stuff, none of the bad. Just like Fair Indigo's clothing, our Joobles organic stuffed animals are made with pure Peruvian organic cotton - in this case Tanguis, a close cousin of famed Pima cotton, with a fiber thickness better suited for stuffed animals. No pesticides or harmful chemicals are used in the cotton. Earth-friendly. Kid-friendly.
Baby safe dyes
All of our dyes are certified to the most stringent safety standards such as the Oeko-tex 100 standard. They're tested for literally hundreds dangerous substances like Azo colorants, formaldehyde, pentachlorophenol, cadmium, and nickel. Our dyes meet or exceed the US Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act (CPSIA) regarding lead and the European Chemical Regulation (REACh).
Smiles for your kids, a transformed life for Gabriel & Irma
Artisans like Irma and Gabriel proudly knit our Joobles collection. Prior to being hired, the couple lived in a shantytown outside of Lima where they had come from the countryside ten years earlier in search of a better life.
The better life didn’t come easily, but since being hired, they have upgraded their home two times and now live in a brick house in a neighborhood where both of their children can attend public school – something Irma said was her ultimate dream. She, nor Gabriel were never able to attend school in their village.
Making an even bigger impact
In addition to living wage jobs, we believe the key to transforming communities from poverty to prosperity is education.
The Fair Indigo Foundation funds teachers' salaries, books, building improvements, and computer labs for children who otherwise were being left behind.
You'll have the option to donate $5 to the Foundation at checkout. Thank you in advance for your generosity!
