Inspiring children's books about women in STEM
From beautifully illustrated picture books to fascinating biographies, these titles show the importance of scientific curiosity and celebrate the scientific progress that we owe to women in science, both past and present. They're the perfect choice to inspire budding young scientists!
Celebrating the freedom to read
The annual Freedom to Read Week encourages Canadians to think about and reaffirm their commitment to intellectual freedom, guaranteed to them under the Charter of Rights and Freedoms. These kids' books have been challenged (and, in some cases, banned) for various reasons, affecting the rights of Canadian children to choose what they want to read — a freedom that can never be taken for granted.
Don't forget to join our Banned Books challenge on Beanstack for kids ages five and up! Earn all the badges between Feb. 1 and 29 to be entered to win a prize. You will find more frequently challenged and banned books for kids and teens on this list from Common Sense Media.
