Representation in children's books doesn't have to be limited to serious or heavy topics. Children must see BIPOC characters in books who experience JOY. Through the books we donate, Joy for Books celebrates the beauty and love that exists within BIPOC communities.
Let's talk literacy! How do BIPOC books improve literacy? Let me count the ways... let's start with connection! When children can see themselves reflected in the books they read, it helps them to engage with the material and develop a LOVE of reading. We love and support that!
Like you, we believe all children deserve to see themselves in books! Through our new nonprofit Joy for Books, we will donate BIPOC books to school libraries nationwide. Follow us and visit our site: https://t.co/wHYQuFPLup! THANK YOU!!
