DO YOU EVEN KNOW ME? by Reem Faruqi & Ani Bushry is one of my top picture book recommendations this year. It's so, so good for so many themes. I want every librarian to have this book in their school & every teacher to read it to their students! #ClassroomBookADay#WNDB
To support teachers in updating their read alouds, if they request an older classic, I pull more contemporary titles to choose from as well. It's a little push I can give for more current & inclusive representation. Title list: heisereads.com/namebooks-2024#ClassroomBookADay#WNDB
