Ms.Rachel asks Why do we ignore the suffering kids already see? Mychal asks Why don’t we build spaces — libraries, classrooms, stories — where every child belongs? I ask.. Why do we fear kids’ Whys when they’re the spark of empathy, equity, and change?

“The Whys Get in Trouble is a joyful celebration of the questions children carry, and a gentle reminder to the adults who love and teach them that curiosity is not a distraction from learning, but its foundation." — Fernando M. Reimers, Professor of International Education, Harvard University
