Everyone has different likes and experiences life differently!
I want to provide the special and diverse books that we can all escape to and learn from.
We all have so much to experience from diverse books
It’s important that readers sometimes can relate to characters within a book❤️
I see all kind of readers stopping by our Little Free Library, young, old, speaking a variety of languages and representing all the skin colors of the planet. At a time when books are increasingly banned in schools, our LFL is a needed resource!
Diversity is important!
We welcome all at SPC and we work to make books available to all. It is our mission to alleviate hunger in our area and this includes the hunger of learning.
I want to know more about the world through reading books by authors from everywhere.
Every child should see their potential in books with protagonists who look like them
Our organization provides free books for kids in low income areas. It is very important for us to have a diverse selection of children’s books to help these children see themselves as a part of the story and universe.
