🌙☪️ Book Recommendations for Ramadan! 🌙✨ Ramadan is almost here! (February 28) And it’s never too early for kids to learn about and celebrate the diverse religions of the world, and these three beautiful children’s books make a great introduction to this special time of year! 📚💛
📚 Book Spotlight: The ABCs of Queer History by Dr. Seema Yasmin, illustrated by Lucy Kirk 🌈

This vibrant and engaging picture book introduces children to Queer history, celebrating trailblazing figures, momentous events, and key LGBTQIA+ terms—all while reinforcing early literacy through letter recognition. With concise facts on every page and in-depth details in the back, young readers (and adults!) can explore the rich history of Queer activism, resilience, and identity.

🫶🏻 I love how this book:

✨ Makes Queer, non-fiction history available for young readers ✨ Includes clear definitions and explanations for LGBTQIA+ terms✨ The ABC format cultivates early literacy skills through letter/alphabet recognition✨ Uses bold, colorful illustrations that captivate and inspire✨ Encourages curiosity, inclusion, and understanding from an early age

Happy Valentine’s Day all!

📚✨ Black History is American History ✨📚

DEI (diversity, equity, and inclusion) and heritage months have been criticized recently. As a librarian, celebrating heritages throughout the year is a way to promote groups that historically have been swept aside in political, economical, and social stages. It’s a way to encourage empathy and understanding: bringing people together.🕊️These celebrations are not a ploy to lessen anyone else’s importance. In fact, it’s meant to let everyone know how important they are. 🫶🏻

📚 Books bring adventures to life! ❄️

While visiting my family in Oregon, my husband (@plantsnft) and I decided to take a quick trip up to Mount Hood and spend a day skiing!

🎿 I pair our experience with one of my favorite board book series: “Good Night Ski Mountain” by Adam Gamble & Mark Jasper, illustrated by Ute Simon. 🫶🏻 This durable board book is perfect for traveling families—it’s easy to pack and lets little ones see their experiences represented in the pages.

✨The “Good Night” series includes cities from across the United States and world as well as other unique spots similar to Ski Mountain like: North Pole, Galaxy, Coral Reef & more! It also includes people: Good Night Daddy, Mommy, New Baby, Puppies & more! AND they have Spanish titles, books specific to Bath Time, and counting!

📚Wherever you might be traveling this Thanksgiving Holiday, bring some of your little’s favorite books! 📖
