Where do you see “gaps” in representation?

December 10, 2021 by Valarie Budayr

It is hard to believe that yet another month has ticked by and our January 28, 2022, event is not far off!

The MCBD Team has been busy as bees planning to make our ninth annual event even better than ever. We are currently matching books to book reviewers thanks to our brand spanking new custom matching software and it is going well! Be sure and watch your email for a Book Matching/Introduction email!

As you may know, Multicultural Children’s Book Day (MCBD) is a non-profit that collaborates 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. But another big part of our online celebration is our crazy-fun Twitter Party on 1/28/22 at 9:00 pm ET.

This party is a wonderful opportunity to connect, share, win prizes and discuss important topics related to our world and diversity in children’s literature. We are currently pulling together discussion questions that will be shared during the Twitter Party and we could use your help!

What book-related topics/concerns are you seeing discussed? Where do you feel there are “gaps” in representation when it comes to multicultural books for kids?

Send your thoughts to admin (at) multiculturalchildrensbookday (dot) com. We would love to hear from you!

ALSO…the Diverse Kidlit Book Reviewer Sign Up for MCBD2022 is OPEN!

GO HERE to get further details and instructions and to get your name on the list to be a MCBD2022 Book Reviewer!

Curious about How Multicultural Children’s Book Day Works? Check out this in-depth blog post here.

More Free Options for Diverse Book Promotion

1. We encourage authors and publishers to join the private MCBD Facebook Group. This group is a nice mix of parents, book reviewers, teachers, and authors, so you will be able to connect with like-minded people!

2. We are always looking for quality, diverse book-related guest posts on the MCBD blog. We would love to know more about your author’s journey, why you wrote your new book, and more about the book itself. Reach out to admin@multiculturalchildrensbookday.com to request a copy of our guest blogger guidelines.

3. We are tentatively planning some Facebook Lives during December and January in honor of MCBD2022 so that could be an opportunity for you as well.

We believe that ALL authors have something unique and wonderful with their work. We believe that ALL authors deserve to be able to shout the news of their book from the rooftops!

So let us know if we can work together in some fashion and, as always, do not hesitate to ask if there are any details that we can clarify for you.
