You can’t walk a mile in someone else’s shoes, unless you are reading a book.
Everyone should have access to books about all kinds of people. Our little suburb near Philadelphia has been diverse for many years and we love it. I pledge to continue to provide books for all of us!
Because I’m a person of color and want my kids to see more diversity in books
More books, more better.
All children should be represented in the books they read!
Everyone should be represented in books
Diversity in my library is a goal. I try to have books for all and am always happy to see people in enjoying the selection of books
We are ALL better when we learn, understand and embrace our differences! Let’s learn our REAL history and the stories behind US.
