Congratulations to Calvin Crosby, co-owner of the King's English Bookshop, Salt Lake City, Utah, who was honored by the University of Utah's American Indian Resource Center at the inaugural Native Excellence Gala last month. The event celebrated "changemakers and leaders who are making a positive impact on behalf of the Indigenous community."
Crosby, a member of the Cherokee Nation, was recognized "for Native Excellence as a Community Partner. He works in conjunction with health clinics at the Navajo Nation to provide books to school-age Native children."
Last year, the King's English launched Brain Food Books, a nonprofit dedicated to distributing children's books to classrooms, schools, pediatric clinics, and daycare centers in the state and in parts of Arizona.
