Subject: Book Purchase Request for Library Collection

To the person in charge of acquisitions of children's books, 

My name is (Your name) and I am a patron of the library. 

I would like to request purchase for our collection of a wonderful new non-fiction children's book called "What Makes Us Human". The book, on the theme of language, languages, and cultural diversity, has received a starred review from School Library Journal and has been chosen by UNESCO as the official children's book for the United Nations International Decade of Indigenous Languages. Below is further information about the book:

ISBN: 978-0802856258

Publisher: Eerdmans Books for Young Readers

Year: 2024

Format: Print

More information: starred School Library Journal review  and very positive reviews by Booklist and Hornbook. 

I believe this book would be an incredible addition to our library's collection and a way for our library to show our patrons that it cares about linguistic and cultural diversity. 

Thank you for considering adding "What Makes Us Human" to your collection.

Best regards, 

(Your Name)
