Come enjoy a winter afternoon enjoying storybooks that have been banned by some school boards for content related to diversity or race. Selected storybooks are intended for ages 4-12 years but all ages will enjoy the messages of resilience and inspiration.
A variety of books will be shared which may include:

Where Are You From? by Jaime Kim
And Tango Makes Three by Justin Richardson and Peter Parnett

The afternoon event will include age-appropriate conversation as well as singing and snacks.
Come at 3 pm and stay as long as you can!
