Making a difference. Inspiring change. Showing compassion.
Today more than ever, we need children’s books that empower and inspire others to be kind. The books in this new series are filled with stories of kids who are making the world a better place by following their hearts and chasing their dreams. Some are helping the earth, others are advocating for people or animals. All are proving that you’re never too young to make a difference!
We need more children’s books that celebrate differences! Children learn about individuals who are different from them by reading diverse books like these, which encourage inclusiveness, empathy, and respect for all types of people. This series is perfect for families and teachers looking to add inclusive books to their libraries.
You will be helping increase diversity in the world of children’s books by supporting this project.
The mission of this series is to:
- Inspire others to make a difference.
- Encourage others to go after their dreams.
- Represent children with disabilities, so that they see themselves in books, alongside their peers.
- Advocate for our environment, animals and people who need support.
- Showcase important charities, foundations and organizations that support the environment, animals and people.
- Share the stories of diverse young people from around the world.
- Empower children to find their passion and take action to make a change.
Why do you need these books?
- They teach kids about the power of resilience and believing in yourself.
- They show children that they can accomplish great things.
- They encourage meaningful conversations about diversity and inclusion.
- They celebrate the differences among us. We are all different and that’s good!
- They teach students the importance of representation by highlighting children with disabilities.
- Suggestions on how your kids can help are provided in each feature.
