Reading is political. Knowledge is power. Information leads to knowledge.
"The control of information is something the elite always does, particularly in a despotic form of government. Information, knowledge, is power. If you can control information, you can control people." Tom Clancy

The book I read today was From the Stars in the Sky to the Fish in the Sea, written by Canadian author, Kai Cheng Thom. This is a beautiful picture book about a child who can be anything they want to be & children who learn to accept themselves as they are, even with differences between them.

Still getting used to being on here and continuing to post on the other two big social media sites since that's where most of the store's friends are still. Trying to remember to post here but...
I've got the same username on all sites so I'm not too difficult to find. 😁

Be kind to each other. You've no way of knowing what the other's going through. Be especially kind to people whose very selves are being challenged. Remind them they're loved for who they are, & that they're amazing just. as. they. are. ! 2/2

Today's one more day in what's been a VERY long week. Only 1453 more. As the person behind the store, I'm having a really hard time right now. /1

Book open to pages depicting children in a school cafeteria. The text on these pages has them asking what's wrong with the penguin book and what's wrong with having two dads after someone says that that's what some people think is wrong with it
Title page for Jacob's Missing Book. A handwritten message reads: For Karen! Tell your Story! It is signed: (a heart drawing) Ian & Sarah
I've enjoyed reading this little book about book banning and LGBTQ+ representation today. It's SO important, especially now, that everyone be able to see themselves in the books they read. #ReadFreely #UnitedAgainstBookBans #AuthorsAgainstBookBans

Open book in front of a rainbow. Text says: Celebrate your right to #ReadFreely. Saturday, January 25, 2025 at your local independent bookstore, or wherever you read books! Take a picture with a book that brings you joy. Post it with the #ReadFreely hashtag and tag @AuthorsAgainstBookBans to find your fellow book lovers!
If you are still on IG, post there, too, but I'd love to see #booksky doing this!

In Bishop Budde's Sunday sermon, she appealed to Trump to show mercy and compassion on LGBT and migrant communities. She has since received messages of hate and wishes for her death. Many people want to support her by buying her book. Physical copies are on backorder but, 1/2
