Diversity is so important in all aspects of life. Especially the value of children seeing characters that look like themselves, but also that offer a glimpse into the lives of other children too.

Let’s celebrate the dads in the days leading up to Father’s Day!

“From Me to You” is a beautiful story about the relationship between a father and child. As the day unfolds in a quiet Italian village, a father encapsulates his hopes and dreams for his young child. Wise, moving and inspirational, this is the perfect story for fathers to share with their children.

Need to diversify your library? Here’s your guide to take action in your own home. Go through your child’s bookshelf and ask yourself these questions...

• Are the characters in these books accurately representing the population & the world we live in?

• Are my children mostly seeing characters that look & live like them?

• What lessons & experiences are being told in these stories that my child is reading over & over again?

By diversifying your home library you are not only showcasing books that hit your child’s interests but also giving them the opportunity to read stories about different backgrounds, experiences and skin colors.

In honor of Memorial Day and the ultimate sacrifice many men and women made on behalf of our country, I am highlighting our Usborne title The World Wars.

It is a combined volume of The First World War and The Second World War. It is also internet-linked which then makes this an AMAZING resource as it has add'l videos, maps, letters, articles, images that correspond with the book. With these internet-links this book can be a complete unit for home study or a way for parents to commemorate days like today with their children.

Some of the internet links...

Our boxes are updated and I’ve run a few super successful Cards for a Cause fundraisers in the past couple months! Do you know how easy these are?

-$30 for 30 cards

-sell 15-25 boxes (once a day post on your fb page followed by some private messages to anyone local asking if they want a box!)

-donate $13 cash per box or $20 in books per box😱

Liz just ran one to donate books to her students at home this summer and is at almost $400 in books to give with 20 boxes sold-we just ran it right with her party last week and her guests were SO excited to get a box of cards for $1 each🥳❤️📫

Another one ran lately was to donate Frys gift cards to families in need/out of work right now!

🎉🎉I am going to mail out a sample card pack to a lucky winner! Comment below with an organization, place, or person in need of some books or cash for your chance to win! (You’re not committing to do a fundraiser! I just want to hear where could use some resources!)

It has been so much fun to be home with Saela during maternity leave. It will be bitter sweet to go back to work (luckily it will be work from home right now). One of my most favorite things is to lay on the floor and play with her. Those baby noises are the best!

Why Usborne Books & More

I'm excited to go on a book adventure with you! I'm Lauren and I'll be your Adventure Guide! Although I've been going on adventures with Usborne Books & More recently and I just love having these books in our lives. My second love is helping others find the perfect books and activities for their readers. With 4 kids of my own I understand the importance of having a quality home library.

So how did I get started with UBAM? I attended a party and the consultant asked me if I wanted to join. After about a week of thinking about it, I knew this was an opportunity I could not miss! I absolutely love getting new books on a monthly basis to add to my home Library. I love being able to introduce fun and engaging books to my kids. When I got my first box of books, I was a believer! The book that made me so eager to help get more books in kids hands was the Bear Grylls Survival Book. My husband was so excited to sit down with all the kids and read that book while planning our next camping trip. My mom heart was full.
