Library Books About Diversity and Inclusion

Help me give my students and our library new books that help teach diversity and inclusion.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Kraft's classroom raised $1,538

This project is fully funded

My Project

Our PreK-12 library has many great books, but we have an increasingly diverse student body, so we are in need of books that recognize and celebrate diversity and inclusion. We want all of our students to be able to find books they can relate to and enjoy reading. Our students can also use these new books to learn about differences and similarities among them.

“Diversity is being invited to the party; inclusion is being asked to dance.” –Verna Myers.

These great books can also be incorporated into lessons, making them more relatable and personal for our students.
