End Pride with some fun! Check out Pride Family Bingo from OurShelves curated diverse children’s book boxes, in partnership with Mombian and Medal on My Mind. It’s a game to get the whole family thinking about all of the fabulous LGBTQ-inclusive kids’ books out there—and what’s still needed. (Hint: My Database of LGBTQ Family Books is a great way to identify books for the game!)
OurShelves offers quarterly book boxes spanning many different aspects of diversity for various ages—and they are also offering a special Pride Box through July 5.
Medal on My Mind: A Stonewall Speculation Blog, is a mock award blog that speculates on the potential results of the American Library Association’s Stonewall Children’s & Young Adult Literature Award.
What brings the three of us together, I believe, is our commitment to connecting readers with quality, diverse children’s literature and encouraging the production of more.
