Books on Diversity

These are books that seek to highlight how our similarities are expressed in varying ways. The illustrations and text may work together to demonstrate this juxtaposition.   

Definitions

Diversity - diversity is about celebrating and accepting the equality of our differences; being a unique individual who is equal to all others in a large group.  Look for diversity in children's picture books primarily in the illustrations.  

Ethnic Experience - these books highlight and celebrate the history, traditions, and experiences of a cultural group.
