The books and activities will promote roll models, achievement and dispel racist indoctrination that has infected our society.

“Improving the (lack of) ‘diversity’ in children’s books is one of the most critical issues in the publishing industry today and is, therefore, currently at the core of industry discussions. Our research suggests this attention is understandable as people of colour continue to be under-represented among children’s book creators.” – Booktrust
