My grandmother would be proud of me with the installation of a Little Free Library at Bissel Garden. She read to me every day and when I started school I could read. The first book I ever read was Donald Duck Sees South America. Always Share Reading – Love Books!
Just started my free little library
Everyone deserves to see themselves in the pages of a book and have their stories told. Representation matters!!
People should see mirrors and windows through the characters in all books. Reading in this way, grows empathy and alliances!
It is important for me to embrace the great opening that is happening now. I am deeply moved to see people who have lived in the shadows, unable to be fully themselves, step into the light.
I want to help bring diversity and inclusion to my neighborhood and provide a place for people to expand their worldviews and have access to different perspectives.
