On My Desk Diverse Kids’ Books to Consider

Friday the 13th my butt! There’s nothing bad about a Friday, especially one filled with BOOKS.

A few weeks ago I shared that, because of my role as Project Manager, I get to enjoy the motherlode of amazing multicultural books for kids that are donated to our project.  And as a result, I wanted to find a fun way to share those books with the loyal folks who show up here to read every week and support this non-profit. I shared another batch of dandy diverse books for kids last week as well including a new graphic novel with a science theme that made my reluctant reader daughter positively GIDDY.

As the prep for MCBD2018 gets into full swing, I’d like to do something fun and different simply because so many of these books deserve as much visibility as we can offer. With that in mind, I’d like to start something new called On My Desk as a way to share some of the notable multicultural books for kids that cross my desk every week.  Here’s what the Mailman Book Fairy brought me this week in the way of New Diverse Kids’ Books to Consider:

As Project Manager for Multicultural Children’s Book Day (MCBD), I get the honor of viewing hundreds of multicultural Children’s Books that are donated or submitted for review approval every year. Basically, from September to January it’s like Christmas time for me and my office turns into a colorful and vibrant warehouse for diverse kids books. #luckyducky

Max the Taco

Those who know Seema Vora Bakhru best also know that she loves tacos. From recipes to social media, this first-time author has always gravitated (and ate!) tacos in all shapes, sizes and flavors. Inspired by a love of tacos, a creative mind and her own two young boys, Seema started thinking about how her obsession with tacos could be a fun book for kids.
