How to add your diverse book review to the MCBD Big Giant Linky

2023 MCBD Big Giant Linky Tutorial

MCBD is a non-profit organization that works with authors and publishers to get their books reviewed for the event and also works to make diverse children’s books available for free.  MCBD also offers a variety of free resources, teaching tools, booklists, downloads, and a year-round initiative to get multicultural and diverse books into the hands of young readers. Over 10,000 books have been donated to underserved kids, classrooms, and organizations to date, and the numbers keep growing.

On January 26, 2023, Multicultural Children’s Book Day (MCBD) will celebrate its 10th anniversary of bringing culturally diverse books to the hands of children, parents, teachers, and librarians.  It is an online and offline celebration that attracts thousands of supporters, educators, parents, caregivers, book reviewers, and quality authors and publishers who join forces to shine the spotlight on diversity in children and YA literature.

If you enjoy diverse kidlit or YA books and have a social media platform to share a review, we want to give you a FREE copy!

I just wanted to congratulate you on another successful Multicultural Book Day event--so many books! So many reviews! It's wonderful how there is more attention being placed on diverse books these days than just a short time ago. I am impressed that you started MCBD in 2012 and it's still going strong and better than ever.  I saw how you retweeted my posts on the books I reviewed--how in the world did you keep up with it all? Amazing! Again, congratulations on a great event~Carol Kim, Children’s Book Author
