Diverse Children’s Book Reviewers: Get a Free Book for MCBD2021
If you love diverse books for kids and have a social media platform to share a review on, we want to give you a FREE diversity book to review!
January 31, 2020, will mark the 7th year of Multicultural Children’s Book Day’s (MCBD) quest to get culturally diverse books into the hands of children, parents, teachers, and librarians. As you may know, Multicultural Children’s Book Day (MCBD) is a non-profit that works with authors to get their books reviewed during our online event and also works to get free diversity children’s books into the hands of young readers.
In a nutshell; you don’t have to be a blogger to review multicultural children’s books for our MCBD2020 (1/31/20) online event. You just need to have a love of diversity in children’s literature and be willing to share on your social media platforms such as Facebook (Pages only-no Facebook profiles), Twitter, Pinterest, Instagram, or YouTube. We encourage honest Amazon reviews of assigned books whenever possible as well.
SIGN UP HERE to be an MCBD2020 book reviewer or use the embedded form below.
(Signup deadline is 12/15/19)
Reviewers are then “matched” with an author or publisher that will supply them with a free children’s book to review. Reviewers are encouraged to read the books and share their thoughts on the book (a basic book review) in the form of a complete review post that can (optional) contain fun book-related activities that will bring the story to life.
Once the book review you, the reviewer, write is posted via your blog and/or your social media (any time between January 1 and January 31, 2020 is good). The MCBD linky will go live on January 31st 2020 and reviewers are invited to “link up” their blog post on the Linky that will be found on the MCBD website. plus any of our CoHosts’ sites
Reviewer sign-up deadline is 12/15/19 (NOTE: We will not be shipping out any books for the 2020 online event until Nov/Dec of 2019!
Reviewers can sign up via a Google Sign-up and review a multicultural children’s book for this event.
