When students feel connected to books they read, they start to feel valued and the learning starts. Not only does it help students feel connected, but also teaches students about other cultures and open their eyes to the diverse world around them. Diverse books are essential because they teach us about others. They help promote respect and empathy for all types of people. When you have children in school and the literature doesn’t look like them, it doesn’t sound like them, it does not deal with their issues, you’re pushing them out rather than inviting them in. We need diverse books because diverse books reflect the world as it is; it allows students to have real life, reflective experiences as they read.
