 ARE DIVERSE BOOKS IMPORTANT?

  • Yes. Every story matters. We need to see stories we relate to.

    —Aja A. 

  • Yes, representation matters. Especially when reading. It provides something relatable at a young age that they catch onto and retain.

    —Camille A. 

  • Yes. It increases a child's language skills and comprehension and gives them opportunities to read and learn about different cultures and people.
