Maria goes live every other week, taking turns between her author Facebook page and her private Empowering Kids with Character Facebook group. In honor of LGBTQ, Maria gave us some books to read!She gave us the first set of books on June 6th and you can watch the video here.

For the first set of books, Maria shared books that encourage children to be themselves and help them feel good and confident about who they are!

For the next set of books, Maria shared books that talk about being kind to others, even when they are different.

For the last set of books (in this video – remember, this is just part 1!) Maria shared some of her favorite LGBTQ books.

Be sure to tune in for the next installment of the video, as Maria will be sharing books that have more female characters! ?
