Promoting Diversity: The Importance of Inclusive Stories

In today's world, diverse and inclusive children's books are crucial.


Exposing children to inclusive stories that celebrate diversity and promote empathy is crucial for fostering a deep understanding and appreciation of different cultures, backgrounds, and experiences. Through these stories, children can learn to embrace differences and become more compassionate individuals.


Brooklyn Banjoko the founder of Inclusive Stories Ltd, is a mother of two boys, both of whom are on the Autism spectrum. Her experience of raising her children has been challenging, but it has also been incredibly rewarding. It has given her a unique perspective on what it means to be a parent of neurodivergent children.


Brooklyn was motivated to create a platform that would provide diverse and inclusive books, sensory toys, and resources that accurately reflect the lived experiences of children with unique needs, like her own. Inclusive Stories Ltd is the result of her hard work and dedication. It aims to provide a safe and welcoming space where families can find the resources they need to support their children. Brooklyn's passion for helping others is truly inspiring, and her work is making a positive impact on the lives of countless families.


Representation Matters


It is essential for children to see themselves positively represented in the stories they read and the toys they play with. Inclusive Stories goes above and beyond in providing a platform that makes this possible. The platform offers a range of books that feature protagonists with different physical abilities, races, cultures, religions, and gender identities. The books not only promote inclusivity and diversity but also help neurodivergent children to feel seen, heard, and understood.


Inclusive Stories' resources are designed to meet the unique needs of neurodivergent children. The platform's books feature visuals that aid comprehension, making them accessible to children with learning difficulties. Inclusive Stories also provides resources that help caregivers and parents support their neurodivergent children's reading and literacy skills.


Inclusive Stories is an excellent resource for parents and caregivers who want to provide an inclusive and diverse learning environment for their neurodivergent children.


Inclusive Stories Community


Not only does Inclusive Stories provide diverse and inclusive products, it also offers a community that connects parents and caregivers, allowing them to share their experiences and connect with each other through the Inclusive Stories Podcast.


This community serves as a powerful tool for those who may feel isolated or overwhelmed by their child's unique needs, providing them with a supportive network of individuals who share similar experiences and can offer guidance and understanding.
