5 Things / back to school edition

5 Things
Written By Bernadette Smith

Most kids are officially back in school, so I'm dedicating this edition of 5 Things to some of the kids books created by wonderful folks in my network. It's never too early to start talking to kids about diversity. Note: these books are for younger kids. 

  • Little Allies: this empowering book illustrates how kids can be allies to their peers

  • Charlotte Wants a BFF: a sweet book about two BFFs who learn from each other's differences

  • My Grown-Ups: a joyful book where families in the diverse neighborhood celebrate their differences

  • Hi, I'm Ella: meet Ella and her delightful diverse friends (and learn their pronouns!)

  • Katy Has Two Grampas: Katy has a lisp and is afraid to speak in class, but she wants to introduce her two grampas (who are married to each other)
