Representation matters- not only to children of color, but to all of us who want to appreciate the diverse traits and contributions of our fellow citizens.
We believe strongly in this cause and feel that it is a small but powerful tool for making voices heard
It’s important to read about those who may seem different from ourselves. It helps us understand a variety of perspectives, learn about cultures, and appreciate the beautiful diversity of our world.

Because our books need to represent the world we live in and grow understanding of others.
So my students can see themselves in the books they read
Important to me to celebrate diversity and peoples’ experiences that I have not had!
It is really important to love and support ALL people. If we are ever going to be an educated and united nation we need to start acting like one. Awareness and kindness starts at home. Read and love one another!
Porque todos somos importantes y únicos y leyéndonos podemos entendernos, perdonarnos, respetarnos y amarnos más. El Amor todo lo puede!
