Carol sits down with children’s book author Charnaie Gordon, a passionate advocate for children's literacy and diversity in books. This mom of two is a diversity, equity, and inclusion expert and the creator of the Here Wee Read blog and podcast. Her mission? To connect kids with books that reflect their diverse identities, and to foster a lifelong love for reading in children.
Charnaie talks with Carol about her own literacy journey, and how she made good on her vow (made before she had any children!) that she would raise kids who loved to read. She and Carol swap stories about fun reading traditions and routines that help encourage early literacy, and Charnaie shares some practical tips for parents who want to boost their kids' reading confidence. This is a must-listen episode for parents and caregivers who want to help kids fall in love with reading, find books that celebrate diversity, and learn how to make sure that children see themselves and others represented in the stories they read.
