In Case You Missed It! Children’s author & poet, @lesleanewman & I talked all things "Banned Books" LIVE on Instagram during Banned Books Week! Lesléa is no stranger to book bans, her sweet, diverse & meaningful stories have been banned & challenged for the past 30 years! I invite you to watch our talk & learn about Lesléa’s writing journey. This video is 10 minutes taken from our 30 minute LIVE chat. You can watch the entire video on my INSTAGRAM page➡️ @etraintalks.
Now! Let's band together & find ways to celebrate diverse stories and put a stop to censoring them!!
