Why Every Child Needs Books with Diverse Characters
“As an educator, this is important to me and I encourage every parent to look for the same in their personal library. Find books like Real MVP Kids that are dedicated to representing a wide range of ethnic and cultural diversity.””

“Not only do your children have an opportunity to see themselves and their friends (or classmates) represented in these books, but they learn about character values, responsibility and language. Each book offers a section of helpful teaching tips for parents at the back of each book.
Sometimes the greatest lessons can be learned through conversations that you have with your children while reading a book with diverse characters.
Empathy
Embracing others does not mean that we accept everything they say and do. It means finding value in each other’s differences.
Reading books with diverse characters teaches your kids to have empathy for all people. People with disabilities, different economic brackets, those not raised by their biological parents, etc., is an important lesson that parents can teach early on.”
