Because I live in a neighborhood rich with diversity and that’s why I have a little free library with books for kids and adults that reflect my community!
Inclusion Matters!

So more children can see themselves in books.
We are located in a very diverse community, our neighbors are Hispanic or Latino, Asian, Caucasian, African American, American Indian or Alaska Native and Native Hawaiian.
This book box says: We are here >with you< to learn of your culture's and support you however we can…
Come let's Grow Together!
All people need to see themselves and learn about people different from themselves in the stories they read. Humans are amazing and wonderful in so many ways!
