~ READER’S FAVORITE REVIEW
Do you want a holiday story with more diverse characters?
Do you want a Mrs. Claus who does more than make cookies in the background?
She’s a whole new take on
an old tradition.
Merry’s story was created with
that in mind.
Merry’s story shows children:
-
Diversity
Children benefit from seeing a variety of people in stories: people who look like them and people who don’t look like them.
-
Respect
Children learn respect when characters demonstrate teamwork and collaborative leadership.
-
Equity
Children expand their sense of themselves and others when they see characters in counter-stereotype roles.
-
Multiculturalism
Children benefit from seeing other cultures as a way to enrich their lives.
