We all need more books that reflect the rich diversity of lives and ideas that enrich our communities.
I love to share my passion for reading with all types of stories
From past and present. I will try to include something for everyone. I want all to feel welcome.
You cannot be what you cannot see, and characters in books can be anything in the universe! Every reader deserves that kind of freedom.
“In an increasingly interconnected world, it is more important than ever to foster understanding and appreciation for diverse cultures and perspectives. By promoting culturally diverse books that are accessible to all, we can create a more inclusive and equitable society where everyone feels seen, heard, and valued.”
We are just starting a Little Library for an Aktion Club which is meant for adults with disabilities. The more we can have stories about all people in this world the more people will understand we are all the same.
