Sunday's #kidlit #PBBios quote, urging young readers to pursue their biggest dreams, and #resist conformity. From RUPAUL by Maria Isabel Sanchez Vegara, art by Wednesday Holmes. 📚👍 #edusky
Pink cover shows young Ru in flowered jacket and glasses, holding up a mirror reflecting him in drag, with blonde wig.

Today my #kidlit quote about #resistance is from MAHATMA GANDHI by Maria Isabel Sanchez Vegara, art by Albert Arrayas #edusky #PBBios 📚👍
Cover: young bespectacled Gandhi, dove on shoulder. Text: "When Britain made salt expensive to buy, Mohandas marched 241 miles to the Indian Ocean in protest. He harvested the salt himself to give to his people. This little gesture shook the world in the gentlest way."
