Story Time values, Representation Matters:
1. Priority is for those books that use people versus animals (animals are fun and I prefer books where children can see themselves represented).
2. Books that represent people of color - darker tones the better. I tend to find less less books with darker tones of skin. The majority of easily accessible books represent light-skinned characters.
STORYTIME TODAY and every Thursday from 10:00 to 11:00 a.m.

Over the last year and a half we have been working tirelessly to build a loving & nurturing community. Our focus has been to provide support for families of color in and around the Long Beach, CA area.
