Mirrors, Windows and Sliding Glass Doors

Children need diverse books. My poster has info graphics on the current characters in children's books. Viewers will see how some populations are not represented. My "lesson plan" shows how to encourage young children to read all kinds of books. Books that mirror their lives and books that show other cultures. These books allow students to validate themselves but also begin to understand other people and places in the world. Without leaving home, children will begin to understand their world through books. Included are links to resources for choosing diverse books.
