I believe that literacy is vital to ensure the prosperity of our
citizens and the strength of our democracy. I also know
reading offers validation for our experiences and fosters
empathy and awareness of others who have different
experiences than ours. In light of these beliefs, I have
decided to expand my #bookaday and ongoing book
donation efforts to include donating at least one book every
day that reflects the diversity of our global family.

“Reading changes your life. Reading
unlocks worlds unknown or forgotten, taking
travelers around the world and through time.
Reading helps you escape the confines of
school and pursue your own education.
Through characters – the saints and the
sinners, real or imagined – reading shows
you how to be a better human being.”
- Donalyn Miller, The Book Whisperer, 2009
