The goal of this initiative matches the goals of our library exactly! Thanks for making this a wide spread campaign.
The REAL Program is spearheading a campaign to establish Lynn, MA as the City of Readers. So far, we have collected and distributed over 240,000 children’s books with an emphasis on diverse children’s books, since 2013.
Children learn inclusiveness by our actions and attitudes. Love one another.
Diversity is important!
Everyone deserves to be seen
Our family believes books should have a variety of people in them, variety being personality and appearance, inside and out.
