Next Book Buddies: Thursday February 25, 2021 @ 5:30 pm
Jazz and Friends 2021!
We're joining the Human Rights Campaign Foundation's Welcoming Schools, the National Education Association, and the American Association of School Librarians to show our support for transgender and non-binary youth in this year's Jazz and Friends Community Reading. We will be reading "My Rainbow" by Trinity and DeShanna Neal, and "I am Jazz" by Jessica Herthel and Jazz Jennings. These books are wonderful as mirrors for kids who are transgender, nonbinary, or gender nonconforming AND windows for kids who aren't to learn ways to be an ally and supportive to people who might be different than they are.
We will also be doing a fun craft together. Activity kits will be available for participants that will include a copy of "My Rainbow" and all necessary craft supplies. An email containing information for pick up will be sent after registration for the event closes.
Folks who wish to join us to show their support for transgender, nonbinary, and gender expansive youth are welcome to join the virtual reading as well. Link is on the eventbrite page.
Register here to participate in the craft and receive a book (limited to 10): https://www.eventbrite.com/e/book-buddies-jazz-and-friends-tickets-141009857279
