pick“All Because You Matter serves as a letter to African American children to tell them they matter in a world that does not always show them favor and instead hands them hate and injustice. The letter affirms them, leading to inner peace, clarity about who they are and where they come from, and possibilities for their futures.”

That in everything the child proves they are strong, important, and need to be confident. This book talks about taking action and being powerful.
This story received the “Golden Kite Award“ and is definitely a story I would incorporate into my classroom library. The moral of the story is to remind children who are marginalized that they matter and will always matter. This story was empowering and made me hopeful for future generations.
pickGolden Kite Award - I think this book does a great of getting through to children and letting them know in their “terms” that THEY MATTER.

“All Because You Matter” by Tami Charles and illustrated by Bryan Collier
Golden Kite Award
This book is a must read for elementary classrooms this year and always. Addressing difficult topics like equality movements, social justice, and systematic racism can be incredibly difficult to navigate as a teacher, but the realities of the world do not go unnoticed by children. This quality resource helps address these topics.

pick#InspiredNewYear Day 8: I find picturebooks like this #charismatic, riveting, and much-needed. Rather than ending up as a superficial, pat-in-the-back, hollow motivational message – both author and illustrator foregrounded the uplifting message as one that is inextricably woven into a history of marginalization and continuous oppression.

New book alert! Beautiful book with a very important message! ❤️📚
