Karen Learns to Care (Teach Me Antiracism Book Series)($13.00Value)

Description

A funny, thoughtful children’s picture book about kindness, fairness, privilege, empathy, and learning not to police other people’s joy. Karen is used to being heard first. She likes getting her own way, and when something feels different, loud, strange, or unfamiliar, she is quick to point, judge, and make a fuss. But when Karen starts policing other children’s food, hair, play, and feelings, a caring teacher helps her understand an important lesson: being comfortable is not the same as being fair. Through playful rhyme and colorful schoolyard illustrations, Karen Learns to Care introduces young readers to big ideas like privilege, respect, empathy, accountability, inclusion, and belonging in an age-appropriate way. Children will learn how to pause before judging, ask better questions, listen to others, and make room for many kinds of joy. Perfect for parents, teachers, librarians, counselors, and caregivers looking for children’s books about: kindness, fairness, empathy, privilege, inclusion, respect, social emotional learning, antiracism, classroom community, bullying prevention, accountability, diversity, belonging, and justice.
