Hello #Twittersphere, I’d love to #ReadAloud this beautiful Amina’s Voice novel by @henakhanbooks to my learning community during our distance learning. I want to ensure I am pronouncing names accurately. Might you be able to help?

[We Need Diverse Books @diversebooks]

At WNDB we believe diversity goes beyond book covers; it needs to be present in the specificity of the storytelling.

For #BlackHistoryMonth, here are picture, MG, and YA books about Black characters by Black authors and illustrators — across genres. What are your faves?

⁦@tiffanymjewell⁩ I am super loving your book! Looking forward to using components of it with my pre-service educators this week. Thank you for putting this gift into the 🌍! #TakeAction #EquityWorkInEducation
