LGBTQ+ Books for Kids
Every September, we celebrate the freedom to read with Banned Books Week. Unfortunately, books that celebrate the gay and trans experience are still among the most frequently challenged books in the country. Join us for this program where we'll celebrate acceptance by blurbing 20 picture books to share with your children ages 0-11 that positively represent the LGBTQ+ culture.
Details: Registration ends at 9:00 a.m. the morning of the program. A Zoom link will be sent to participants morning of the program.
