Tweetable quote: “Books can be a bridge between a caregiver and a child. It will help them to have a conversation around a tricky topic. They can be mirrors, so children can see themselves in the midst of the pages, and they can be windows, so children can look inside someone else experience.” – Maria Dismondy, author and mom.
