Why Diverse Children’s Book Authors Write

October 1, 2021 by Valarie Budayr

Over the last 9+ years as Project Manager for MCBD, I’ve had the honor of working with a wide range of amazing authors who are all striving to create beautiful books that fill a gap and a need.

One thing I know for sure is that, when I ask them why they write diverse books for kids or teens, they never say, “I write books because I want to make a million bucks.”

NEVER.  [Read more…]

New Feature! MCBD’s Instagram Lives!

September 12, 2021 by Valarie Budayr

One of the many missions of MCBD is to always be shining the spotlight on authors of diverse kidlit. Thanks to the talents of MCBD Team Member and long-time CoHost, Leanna Gullien-Mora, we are excited to announce the addition of a reoccurring Instagram Live feature! Every Wednesday at 3:00 p.m. ET., followers can tune in and learn more about these amazing authors and their books.

Here’s a look at the authors that Leanna has already interviewed and the ones yet to come. [Read more…]

How MCBD Can Promote Your Diverse Kidlit

July 21, 2021 by Valarie Budayr

Every day the MCBD Team checks our emails, and we are always blown away by the quality and beauty of the upcoming diverse books for kids from new, or veteran, authors. Most of these emails are requests for a book review, and though we are honored, we have to sadly decline.

Here’s why:

The Multicultural Children’s Book Team currently (this could change in the future) does not review books on our blog and social media. Our team is small and there are already just not enough hours in the day for us!

BUT we do have different opportunities available for authors to shine the spotlight on their diverse books and even unique ways to collaborate with us. Some are paid options, some are not. [Read more…]

Let us SHOUT just for YOU!

April 3, 2021 by Valarie Budayr

Let’s do some Shouting!

No, not that kind of hollering… this kind!

For a limited time, the MCBD Team is offering two new ways to gain some effective and unique visibility on social media that is an “up-level” from our extremely popular $39 Social Media Shout-Outs. [Read more…]
