Importance of student's reading about cultural diversity

According to Young Adult Literature in Actions, A Librarian's Guide, Literature of a variety of cultures offers young adults three opportunities. The first is that reading about other cultures helps them to obtain a broader view of the world. Second, prejudice and misunderstanding of other cultures will be easier to interrupt. Third, the minority of other cultures will be able to view themselves in a positive way. Books about cultural diversity can help aid in the understanding of different cultures for young adults and help people of different ethnicity to feel pride in their culture.
