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!
If you can’t see it, you can’t be it.
Diversity is under attack in this country. We’ve gained so much by being a diverse country let’s not lose what we’ve gained!
Because everyone is a part of the world and literature!
Reading expands our awareness, our minds, and our hearts!
Hello!
I am a K-8 visual arts teacher in a Chicago public school. We have a lending library in our school for students to use. Students check out our books and then return them to our library for other students. It functions like a Little Lending Library. Thank you!
Reading is a blessing for everyone to share and enjoy celebrating our diversities and backgrounds.
