How do you set up your environment so that your classroom community is inclusive and comfortable to be as you are? How can we customize our familiar books and props so that they are relevant, knowledgeable and in synchronization with the modern world? How can we use children's books and stories to approach potentially overwhelming and complex topics in a respectful and inclusive way?
