Our award-winning multicultural YA fiction, e-book mysteries, nonfiction/biographies, Spanish language & bilingual picture books (with ESL/ELL pronunciation guide), short stories, wordless books, and activity STEM books (astronomy, zoology, ecology) feature diverse characters in vivid color. Nationally lauded (Publisher’s Weekly, Kirkus, ForeWord Reviews, The Horn Book, School Library Journal), our humorous educational children’s books capture attention and create repeat readers. While not about racial diversity (our only agenda is entertainment and age-appropriate learning), these stories have contributors of various ethnicities and feature black, white, Asian, Filipino, Indian, Pacific Islander, Hispanic, First Nations/Native American, mixed-race, and physically challenged characters (BIPOC)—with family values like courage, sharing, and friendship.
