I was looking for some books that deal with racial stereotypes, so we can introduce the idea of "stereotypes" to G. We've discussed the idea of stereotypes a little, but I like books as sources of visual and concrete learning when I can find them. In the process of looking for books, I came across this list of books combatting gender stereotypes. It looks like a great list. We've read the Princess Knight book, and it's a fun read with a useful message. In the book, when a king holds a contest, offering the winner his daughter's hand in marriage, she is upset. The princess anonymously enters the contest covered in armor and wins. G has always liked the book since we stumbled on it. Other books in the list below, look promising as well.
