Everyone should see themselves in books. Diversity is important.
Because it is the right thing to do. Everyone should accepted and have their stories represented.
We want everyone in our community to see themselves in the books we have and be a positive force for more community engagement and unification!
Because one perspective rarely does justice to the story
This is an invaluable goal that supports all people and freedom of expression. Always a worthwhile pursuit to have 🙂
We are a diverse world and we need to make sure that is appreciated and celebrated.
We take part in Pequannock NJ Pride Festival to share and give away LGBTQ+ books to celebrate reading and diversity and inclusion.
