Welcome to Litsy!

On this National Day of Mourning, I want to dedicate my post to my hero, Jimmy Carter. Jimmy Carter was someone that lived his life serving the world, knowing he didn‘t need a title to do good. His faith and works speaks volumes about the man he was, and his marriage to Rosalyn was one for the ages.

I‘ve been collecting his books, all signed, for years now, and they mean so much to me. Thank you President Carter for your service.

“What shall we tell you when our world sometimes seems dark and uninviting? What shall we tell you when hateful words that wound and bully are thrown like bricks against a wall, shattering into debris?”

This book would be good to piece together with students, this is really helpful in bringing a realistic look to things and is very empowering.

Poetry. “What shall we tell you” - This beautiful collection provides children (and the adults in their lives) this safe space. Authors ask questions, share wisdom and provide support. By doing so, they open the window to talking about these difficult times. Dedicated to “those who advocate for and pursue a just society and basic human rights for all people”

“What shall we tell you when our world sometimes seems dark and uninviting? What shall we tell you when hateful words that wound and bully are thrown like bricks against a wall, shattering into debris?”
