My class loves to read. I am always in search of new books to read to my students. Our classroom community comes from diverse backgrounds, however most of our books tend to have white characters as the leads. I want books in my library that students can picture themselves in.
I have students from all over the world, some come from economically challenged families, and others immigrate from countries they were forced to leave.
They need books that they can make connections to and that help
all students have more empathy for one another. It will help them see the world and open their hearts.
