Preschool: We Need Diverse Wordless Books

My Project

While still navigating the COVID with full days in school, we are now implementing a new curriculum. We are desperately in need of book titles that are not in the classroom library of books which were either purchased by me or donated by wonderful people like yourselves. Can you help bring books to my young students?

"When you read to a child, when you put a book in a child's hands, you are bringing that child news of the infinitely varied nature of life You are an awakener", - Paula Fox.

I am requesting titles of books to use in buddy ready time. Wordless books help encourage children to really "read" what they see happening in the pictures. I have asked for books that allow my students to be introduced to many cultures, some like them and some not. It is important at a young age that children learn that our differences are the things that make us beautiful and unique.
