After growing tired of reading books about white boys and their dogs, eleven-year-old Marley Dias started a book drive to collect 1,000 books in which black girls are the main characters. She then gave the books away to children in the U.S. and rural Jamaica. In this clip, the "precocious" Ms. Dias charms the pants off Charlie. Follow Dias' campaign at#1000blackgirlbooks.
