Great question. Can't wait to see the suggestions that come in!

Thank you for posting this. I especially appreciate the calls to action.

I'd love to share a link to it, however there are some typos in the prayer.

I recently did a ton of research to update our Nursery and Children's book collections. Here are the titles I chose, based on a careful reading of each to make sure they suited our goals of promoting diversity and inclusivity:

 

-God's Very Good Idea- Trillia Newbell -The Big Wide Welcome- Trillia Newbell (these are part of a series called Tales that Tell the Truth and we will be adding the rest from this series to our collection gradually)

-Josey Johnson's Hair and the Holy Spirit by Easau McCaulley

-God Made Me Unique by Joni and Friends, -God made Me AND You by Shai Linne  -God Made Me for Worship by Jared Kennedy (all part of the God Made Me series of six books)

-The Garden, The Curtain, The Cross Board Book- Carl Laferton

-Gracefull by Dorena Williams -Colorfull by Dorena Williams

-The Biggest Story ABC by Kevin DeYoung

-Indescribably for Little Ones by Louis Giglio
