This is a fantastic! I hadn't realized there's been more diverse portrayals since I was a kid. :)
same here!! I haven't read all the books on this list, so I'm hoping that they are all thoughtful representations. I'm hoping to work my way through this list throughout the next year :)
oh i love this!!! definitely going to have to make my way through this list!!!!!!
thank you!!! I stumbled across Prairie Lotus and knew I needed to find more books like it and make a list. If you're looking for a place to start, Prairie Lotus was a lovely read â¤ď¸
