I want kids to see themselves in the books that are available to them.
Reading is something I love and love has no color
I love diverse books!
I want my grandchildren to grow up in a world that is colorblind!
Every child should have books in their homes with faces that represent them.
I believe that diversity is what life is about.
as a brown child of immigrants who was thirsty for books, I pledge to offer diverse stories to the kids who roam down our street as a LFL steward. May the adventures continue on for the next generations
