# [Helping You Nurture a Love of Reading](https://facingcanada.facinghistory.org/helping-you-nurture-a-love-of-reading)

Posted by [Facing History and Ourselves Canada](https://facingcanada.facinghistory.org/author/facing-history-and-ourselves-canada) on September 15, 2021

For many educators, back to school is a time of excitement; the idea of inspiring young readers, fostering new understanding, smelling and holding books together as a classroom community brings delight. You hope students will bee-line to the bookshelf during independent and community reading time.  

And yet, for many students and educators alike, the classroom library doesn’t hold delight and discovery; books are limited, fail to meet accessibility or linguistic needs, lack diversity in representation or have stereotypical characters.  

**We are here to support you in creating a richer, equitable literacy learning community and environment**

- [On our blog, you can now find this post on thoughtfully selecting texts to forward diversity, equity and inclusion.](https://facingcanada.facinghistory.org/thoughtfully-choosing-texts)
- On our website, we’ve also added a new [Identity and Storytelling text set for middle and high school classrooms](https://www.facinghistory.org/ela/coming-age/identity-storytelling), [ Unit Planning Toolkit](https://www.facinghistory.org/ela/coming-age/unit-planning-toolkit) for literature classrooms and a [Book Club Guide](https://www.facinghistory.org/ela/coming-age/centering-student-voice-and-choice-book-club-guide). 
- In this collection, you'll also find [short and thought-provoking video clips  from our conversation](https://www.facinghistory.org/resource-library/video/nurturing-love-reading) with Dr. Kimberly Parker, award winning educator and Director of Harvard University’s Crimson Academy, to spark conversation at your next department meeting.
- You can continue to find in depth educator guides and multimedia resources for texts like[ *Night*](https://www.facinghistory.org/witnesses-history-series/teaching-night), Elie Wiesel's memoir of survival in the Holocaust,  [Teaching Salvaged Pages: Young Writers' Diaries of the Holocaust](https://www.facinghistory.org/teaching-salvaged-pages), as well as the new [Brown Girl Dreaming Unit Outline](https://www.facinghistory.org/books-borrowing/exploring-identity-and-community-18-week-curriculum-outline), which accompanies Jacqueline Woodson's memoir of growing up in segregated South Carolina, and New York during the 1960s and 1970s.
