We are a twi-racial family on a multiracial street in a multiracial country. Read in Color is a no-brainer, let’s do it!
Children deserve to see themselves and all the possibilities they can be or see in the characters!
Because everyone deserve to see people who look like them in the books that they read!
Every one deserves to see themselves in the stories they read. Reading helps to “normalize” being different which helps to fight negative stereotypes, discrimination, and racism.
I believe in the importance of tolerance and diversity.
To help those who may want or in need of books to bring smiles on children see others enjoy reading
