books beyond black & white
Compiling a good book list is *hard* work—but once they’re ready (they’re rarely ever “done”), they become an invaluable resource. A few weeks ago I met Malaika Rose Stanley through Wendy Meddour on Facebook; Malaika was putting together a list of PB, MG, and YA books that feature mixed-race protagonists and I asked my “team” to help out. Thanks, ladies—but get ready: it’s almost time to put together the 2011 list of African American MG/YA novels, and once again I’ll be tapping Ari, Edi, and Doret to help me out. But this weekend, I’ll be grading…
Here are some of the lists we’ve worked on in the past:
- African American Speculative Fiction for Kids
- African Canadian Children’s Literature (2000-2011)
- African American MG/YA Novels 2010
