It is so important for children to be exposed to cultural diversity. One way to comfortably expose children to this is through books! I think culturally diverse books provide children with the knowledge and the mentality to be tolerant of others and to care for others. Teachers can use culturally diverse books to teach almost every character education trait.
I recently read two culturally diverse books!
Esperanza Rising and Roll of Thunder, Hear My Cry. I enjoyed both of them!
Well I finally read Esperanza Rising. I cried and cried. I just loved it soooo much. I'm glad you chose to read it also. Awesome book!!
