Today’s Native YA writing community is dynamic and on the rise. So is the resulting body of compelling, quality teen literature. Big picture, we’re tackling daily life and fantastical stories of teens grounded in their Indigenous identities and communities. The emphasis skews to modern, contemporary settings and sensibilities, underscoring that we are peoples of living Nations and cultures with a past, present, and future.

Multicultural Booklist, On My Desk
December 30, 2018

SO..what in the world is “On My Desk” anyway?

This series got started because, with my role as Project Manager, I get to enjoy the avalanche of amazing multicultural books for kids that are donated to our project.  A good chunk of the year my office looks like a small bookstore and I love every second of it.

Being appreciative of every book that crosses my desk, 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. In that moment, On My Desk | #ReadYourWorld Kidlit Books for 2019 was born! It’s my way of sharing some amazing titles that don’t always get the attention they deserve.

So even though MCBD2019 hasn’t occurred yet (1/25/19), I am LOVING all of the amazing books all these wonderful multicultural books for kids that I am discovering every time I open the mail.

Here’s what the Mailman Book Fairy brought me this week:
