It is important to read stories about people from every culture and to expose children to that as well
Love is Love & Jesús Loves us all
Everyone’s story matters and deserves to be told!
I want to promote diversity and share my love of reading
It’s just the decent and right thing to do.
I’m signing the Little Free Library Read in Color pledge to ensure my child grows up seeing stories that reflect many cultures, voices and experiences. Diverse books build empathy, understanding and a broader view of the world; something every child deserves from the very beginning. Plus more adults need also!
