BEST #OWNVOICES CHILDREN’S BOOKS: My Favorite Diversity Books for Kids Ages 1-12 is a book that I created to highlight books written by authors who share the same marginalized identity as the characters in their books.
Manjhi Moves a Mountain sounds very interesting. I’m on a mission to help our niece fill the shelves of a school for girls in Kitenga, Africa. I’ve looked at some of you pininterst boards. Any suggestions are welcomed, or ideas about publishers I might contact. Looking for secondary school girls who read PB, Chapter, MG and YA.
Have a Merry Christmas!
