Concerned about the lack of diversity in children\u2019s books, Charnaie Gordon and her two kids are bridging the literacy gap with their new project that brings diverse books to children in each of the 50 states. <\/strong><\/p>\n Gordon founded the Here Wee Read<\/a> platform, which highlights diversity in children\u2019s books, featuring multiple races, cultures and religions. The curated books also teach children about important subjects such as immigration and politics. <\/strong><\/p>\n Through 50 States 50 Books, Gordon and her two children are sending these significant books to non-profit organizations, libraries, schools, and more, to every state in the country. \u00a0Gordon also has plans to donate new books to children\u2019s hospitals. <\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n My little brother and I are committed to doing our part to help close the early #literacygap by donating 50 #diversebooks to each of the 50 US states by December 31, 2020 (or sooner). \u2022 Right now we\u2019re on track to complete our 4th state by the end of this month. We\u2019d love to know about your projects or different ways you may be helping serve children in your community or nationwide. Let\u2019s connect! \ud83d\udc47\ud83c\udffe#50states50books #closethegapfillthemap #bookbed #bookpile #bookhaul #libraryhaul #bookstack #earlyliteracy #literacyadvocate #kidled #kidleader #blackkidmagic<\/a><\/p>\n A post shared by 50 States 50 Books<\/a> (@50states50books) on \n
