January 28, 2022, will mark the 9th year of Multicultural Children’s Book Day’s (MCBD) quest to get culturally diverse books into the hands of children, parents, teachers, and librarians. As you may know, Multicultural Children’s Book Day (MCBD) is a non-profit that works with authors to get their books reviewed during our online event and also works to get free diversity children’s books into the hands of young readers.

Multicultural Children’s Book Day (MCBD) 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. Celebrated annually on the last Friday in January, this global non-profit offers a plethora of free resources, teaching tools, booklists, downloads, and a year-round initiative to get multicultural and diverse books into the hands of young readers. To date, they have donated over 10,000 books to underserved kids, classrooms, and organizations, and that number continues to climb. To learn more about MCBD, visit them on the web and be follow their official hashtag #ReadYourWorld on social media.

SO…if you love diverse books for kids and have a social media platform to share a review on, we want to give you a FREE diverse kidlit or YA book to review!

AND, you don’t have to be a blogger (though we love our bloggers!) to review multicultural children’s books for our MCBD2022 online event. You just need to have a love of diversity in children’s literature and be willing to share on your social media platforms such as:

Facebook (Pages only-no Facebook profiles)

Reviewer sign-up deadline is 12/15/21

(NOTE: We will not be shipping out any books for the 2022 online event until Nov/Dec of 2021!

    This is a wonderful website! Thank you for this idea!

    I published Time Quill last year, a children’s book about the Islamic Golden Age and science history. How can I get it added to your list?

    I am a District Mentor in Southwest Florida, and we have a very diverse population. I would appreciate the opportunity to share these resources with my new teachers.

    I would like to sign up, but it is saying the site cannot be reached.
