Many of the books on my list are counter-narratives, books that show children of color being children. Many of these books let my students see themselves in stories about regular kids and/or see others who are different than them doing the same things they do. Some books talk about history, activism, and what they can do to bring change to the world. Both types of books would be beneficial to my classroom. Books like these will allow deep discussion about big issues like culture, poverty, race, and gender identity. These are important discussions to have with children of all ages, and at five and six years, I feel my students are ready to learn about these tough ideas. Through my research about counter-narratives and books about showing diverse stories, I realized I lacked books like these in my classroom. I would love to have my classroom library more representative of the children I teach and the world around them.
