LFL #104664 believes that representation in books of all ages matter, especially for children. As a steward, I pledge to commit myself and my library to reading and sharing diverse books so that everyone can see themselves represented and celebrated.
Everyone deserves to see themselves represented in literature and we all benefit from seeing the world from diverse perspectives.
We live in a diverse society and everyone deserves to be represented and respected in literature.
Our mission is to share books about social justice, social equity, and Black American experiences.
I’m a SPED teacher and want all my students to see themselves in books they read.
The reason we started the little free library initiative in Berwyn IL was to increase biliteracy and be culturally responsive. We support this pledge!!!
