Our books should be as diverse as the communities we serve!
we live in a very diverse community, it’s important to build a strong bond and respect one another
We welcome and embrace all. We partner with Sedgefield Elementary School with is very diverse in race, language and income. We want these families to use our resources to help their children learn.
I believe that we find ourselves in books, and that can only be done equally if there is equal representation.
We want to help build tolerance and understanding in the world. Even a small ripple in a very large pond can make a difference.
