I love this book. It may not be great for public schools because it references God, but it‘s great otherwise.

This teaches a great lesson about diversity. This also talks about a real problem that girls of different races may face, and it shows them how to value their individuality. Also, the illustrations are beautifully done.

Hair Like Mine is a RF book written by Latashia Perry & illustrated by
Bea Jackson and this would be best used as SR. The story revolves
around a young girl who isn‘t too fond of her curly hair. Throughout
the story she tries to find two people who are alike and then she
notices that even the twins at her school have their own differences.
This book highlights the importance of celebrating the things that
make each and every one

JocelynNolton of us unique. This is a lesson plan that
further reinforces the theme of this book and there are multiple
activities that can span over a couple of days.

ChelseaPerez I absolutely love this book and how it introduces different types of cultural influences they see in there every day lives. It normalizes cultural qualities that they often hear negative things about. This helps promote diversity, and makes other children who can relate feel represented. 6y
JocelynNolton Yes! I agree with you. I think it's very important to have multiple representations of cultural/ethnic backgrounds in the classroom. 6y
