pickThe Case for Loving (2015) is a picture book in the biography and history genre that won the Jane Addams Children's Book Award. This story tells the true tale of Richard and Mildred Loving, a couple who fought against laws prohibiting interracial marriage, eventually leading to the landmark 1967 Supreme Court decision that made such laws unconstitutional.
This book would make a good lesson on bravery and what it means to be brave and to help our friends.
pickSending hugs! This is an oldie but a goodie. Some of the characters are reluctant to hug, but knowing it's a delivery makes it okay.
pickI loved exploring Dexter and Emma‘s relationship from graduating university to celebrating milestones together. The snapshots of their lives provided so much detail that could be related to. The writer showed how life can change in the blink of an eye and the characterisation enabled the reader to feel like you were peeking into their lives.
Refreshing to have a woman‘s character told from a male author. I now need to watch the tv series! 4🌟
