Fact Friday Banned Books Week edition features This Day in June by Gayle E. Pittman PhD. This informational picture book for all ages is a story in rhyme that takes place at a Pride parade and is joyously illustrated by Kristyna Litten. Back matter includes facts about LGBTQ history as well as discussion points for guiding acceptance and respect for differences. Half of the top ten books that were banned or challenged in 2018 were because of LGBTQ content. Let's celebrate our freedom to read and work to understand and respect other points of view.
