Similar design with decorative mauve heart in top corner and image of picture book Love, Violet in lower corner. Text in blue and red on soft gold box: “‘Book banning is about... holding up these myths that keep prejudice going. Prejudice depends on you not seeing the humanity of other people. You have to have stereotypes. You have to have lies [and] fear… Our stories do... the opposite. They humanize.’ Charlotte Sullivan Wild, author of Love, Violet” QR code. Similar design with three accept lines around the first line of text. Image of picture books What Are Your Words? on side. Yellow and white text on dark blue box: “‘[Diverse] books are for everybody. Everybody can identify with some piece of this book and learn something… and find common ground. That’s what stories do best. And that’s how we build a bigger community. That’s what I’m always trying to do with my books.’ Katherine Locke, author of What Are Your Words?” QR code
