      Why I chose: This book is about a young Black girl who is trying to look for kids who have the same type of hair as her. It is very cute and I thought it would be relatable for Black children who might compare their hair to others. It talks about embracing how everyone is different.]]> 2021-03-23 16:30:54 UTC https://padlet.com/cassidyg333/qe1jbu3wxj8v9534/wish/1343901690 cassidyg333 https://padlet.com/cassidyg333/qe1jbu3wxj8v9534/wish/1343920662 Malala's Magic Pencil (by Malala Yousafzai)
      Why I chose: Opens up a good discussion for people's experiences in other types of the world. Can also open a good discussion about how to advocate for disadvantaged populations.]]> 2021-03-23 16:34:07 UTC https://padlet.com/cassidyg333/qe1jbu3wxj8v9534/wish/1343920662 cassidyg333 https://padlet.com/cassidyg333/qe1jbu3wxj8v9534/wish/1343921354 I am Alfonso Jones (by Tony Medina)
     Why I chose: Opens up a discussion on racism and police brutality. With the recent Black Lives Matter movement, I thought this could be a very relevant book that allows children an opportunity to discuss their feelings associated with the movement. It is also a graphic novel which makes it more visually appealing.]]> 2021-03-23 16:34:14 UTC https://padlet.com/cassidyg333/qe1jbu3wxj8v9534/wish/1343921354 cassidyg333 https://padlet.com/cassidyg333/qe1jbu3wxj8v9534/wish/1464622357 Dear Primo: A Letter to my Cousin (by Duncan Tonatiuh)
      Why I chose: Has colorful pictures and introduces children to some Spanish words and Mexican culture. Shows similarities and differences living between living in a city in the US and living on a farm in Mexico.]]> 2021-04-27 14:39:44 UTC https://padlet.com/cassidyg333/qe1jbu3wxj8v9534/wish/1464622357 cassidyg333 https://padlet.com/cassidyg333/qe1jbu3wxj8v9534/wish/1464648802 The Lying Liar called Racism (by Fuerte)
     Why I chose: Explains racism in a kid-friendly way so that kids can better understand what it is. It also would be good for prompting discussion.]]> 2021-04-27 14:44:39 UTC https://padlet.com/cassidyg333/qe1jbu3wxj8v9534/wish/1464648802 cassidyg333 https://padlet.com/cassidyg333/qe1jbu3wxj8v9534/wish/1464657439 If I am Alfonso Jones is not age-appropriate (I have not read through the entirety of the book), Displacement by Kiku Hughes is another option -- follows the story of a young girl in Japanese internment camps. It is also a graphic novel and visually appealing.]]> 2021-04-27 14:46:14 UTC https://padlet.com/cassidyg333/qe1jbu3wxj8v9534/wish/1464657439
