Celebrate Diversity in Children’s Books
Join us in May 2023 (and beyond) in celebrating diversity in children’s books! Shouldn’t every child be able to read a book and feel connected to the characters? Unfortunately, there is a shortage of affordable children’s books that reflect the diverse communities we aim to serve. That being said, we’re using this month to target donations that will go towards the cause of increasing diversity in our collection. Please visit these incredible sites below to see some of our idols who aim for inclusion! Help us with continued book and financial donations that support this mission and help spread the word as we strive for inclusivity!!!
