Durham Herald-Sun: “Mirrors and Windows Project celebrates diversity in children’s books

Benay Hicks

“Books are sometimes windows, offering views of worlds that may be real or imagined, familiar or strange… When lighting conditions are just right, however, a window can also be a mirror. Literature transforms human experience and reflects it back to us, and in that reflection we can see our own lives and experiences as part of the larger human experience.”
