I believe it is important for everyone, especially children to see someone who looks like them or their family in books!
We support the idea that every should be able to see themselves in books they read, and to read what they wish.
It is important that all children feel represented in the books they read!
I believe that every child should be honoured in quality books that give value to who they are and who they can be.
With knowledge comes power and with inclusion & Diversity comes empathy for others. Having both together is important
My LFL will be ready in the summer now I just have to get it up and to get my charter badge!
My diverse community deserves to have more options to read in color across all walks of life.
