Publisher's Synopsis
"I Can Be..." is more than just a guide-it's a powerful tool for parents and educators to spark curiosity and build confidence in young boys. Studies show that Black and Brown Men are significantly underrepresented in Computer Science fields. This gap highlights the need to encourage young boys to recognize their potential in these fields. Diversity is essential for driving innovation, creativity, and progress in every industry.
By reading this book, young boys will see that they, too, belong in these spaces and that their unique talents and perspectives are essential to making the world better. Parents play a crucial role in introducing their children to career possibilities early, and this book is the perfect starting point.
This book is not just an introduction to careers-it's a confidence booster for Black and Brown boys. In a world where they often don't see themselves represented in these careers, "I Can Be..." shows them that they are not only capable but that their talents and ideas are needed. When children see role models who look like them, they are more likely to dream big and believe in their ability to succeed. This book will inspire them to explore new possibilities, discover their passions, and envision a future full of endless opportunities.
