Most successful women try to surround themselves with other like-minded women.

Shouldn’t we do the same for our children? We are reminded of the importance that having someone to look up to is to a young developing mind. Role models and mentors not only shape a developing mind but also can have a huge impact on a child’s path. At Madison Miles & Friends, we like to encourage the exploration of STEM studies for our young masterminds. Now that it is officially Women’s History Month, we’d like to highlight a few women masterminds in history.

Everyone deserves to see themselves in the pages of a book. 

This statement has been one of the founding beliefs of this non-profit children’s literacy initiative for nearly a decade. 

As our mission states, MCBD has been passionate about raising awareness for children’s books that celebrate diversity by getting more of these books into classrooms and libraries since the first day we launched this company. This non-profit also strives to shine the spotlight on the diverse books and authors that mainstream publishing and media often overlook.

With ONE STEP FURTHER, author Katherine Johnson shares what it was like for her daughters to be a part of her history-making path. Filled with personal reflections, exclusive family archival photos, and striking illustrations, readers will be immersed in this deeply personal portrayal of female empowerment, women in STEM, and the breaking down of race barriers across generations.

{Guest Post By Jodi Murphy}

Black History Month begins and it’s just one of the many opportunities we can take to talk to kids about the many contributions and achievements of African Americans.

Dorktales Storytime Podcast would like to bring the stories of two trailblazers from two different time periods in American history to your children. These are two men who faced racial injustice—one who was enslaved then freed and one who lived during Jim Crow laws. Through their own talents, hard work, and determination, they had extraordinary accomplishments that changed our world for the better.
