We're proud to collaborate with Loving Little Minds to provide Toyary members with a new book added to our collection each month. Through curated multicultural books aimed at kids 0-6 years old, each story reinforces the Medford-based nonprofit's mission to battle system racism and empower our littles to envision a more just future for all. Most importantly, we are proud advocates of Loving Little Minds goal "to inspire future generations to make positive and inclusive change." You can learn more about this organization here.
