Personally, I have not yet checked them. I'm working with a team who very well might be knowledgeable about them. I will be sure to ask.</div>

Greetings and Shana Tova (happy new year),<br>
<br>
I am wondering if anyone can send me titles related to diversity and Judaism? (This can include different sects of Judaism but does not have to.)<br>
<br>
These books will be for grades K - 8, and perhaps high schoolers/adults as well, but 5-8 is my main target audience.<br>
<br>
Resources, suppliers, and collection development ideas would also be greatly appreciated.<br>
<br>
Feel free to email me on or off list.<br>
<br>
Thank you,<br>
—Todd<br>
