Focused on Impact

Why Culturally Relevant Books Matter

When children see themselves reflected in stories, something powerful happens—they realize their experiences, families, and cultures are valued and celebrated.

Build Identity & Pride

Children recognize their traditions, foods like plátanos and arroz con habichuelas, and celebrations like Viernes Santo—affirming their heritage matters.

Honor Language & Culture

Bilingual stories in English and Spanish show that both languages hold equal value, building confidence in multilingual learners.

Foster Belonging

Seeing families, neighborhoods, and customs like their own in books helps children feel they belong in school and in stories.

Develop Confidence

Kids who see characters who look and sound like them as heroes and leaders realize they can be creators and achievers too.

Strengthen Family Bonds

Stories featuring abuelos, tíos, primos, and community traditions celebrate the family connections that shape who children are.

Transform Learning

When children open a book and find themselves, they discover: "You belong here. Your story matters." That message changes everything.
