Marley Dias' new book! Read it over the holidays!

Marley Dias, founder of #1000BlackGirlBooks, is now on tour promoting her own book:



Her book is available on Amazon and a copy has been ordered for the Library.

"Marley Dias explores activism, social justice, volunteerism, equity and inclusion, and using social media for good. Drawing from her experience, Marley shows kids how they can galvanize their strengths to make positive changes in their communities, while getting support from parents, teachers, and friends to turn dreams into reality. Focusing on the importance of literacy and diversity, Marley offers suggestions on book selection, and delivers hands-on strategies for becoming a lifelong reader." (Amazon blurb)

Kirkus Reviews writes: "Dias understands that the personal is political and that one person has the power to make a difference. Dias' magnetic personality, outlook on life, and passion for change enliven every page, making this both a fun read and an irresistible call to action for people of all ages and backgrounds."
