These stories have always existed. Now they’re finally being heard.

The Boldest White is a story that reminds us what courage really looks like. Faizah’s journey from nerves to bravery is one every kid (and grown-up) can relate to.

With fencing, family, and heart, Olympic medalist Ibtihaj Muhammad @ibtihajmuhammad gives us a beautiful celebration of what it means to show up even when it’s scary. @skalibooks @littlebrownyoungreaders #diversebooksmatter #diversebooksforkids #weneeddiversebooks #hereweeread

If you enjoy books about books, words, and writing check out this stack.

From the magic of Dear Bookstore to the powerhouse legacy of A Crown of Stories about Toni Morrison, these picture books celebrate stories that shape us, words that lift us, and books that feel like home.

Whether it’s a wild imagination trip with Once Upon a Book, standing up for stories with The Great Banned-Books Sale, or dreaming about reading every book ever with I Want to Read All the Books, every page reminds us why we fell in love with books in the first place.

Which one are you adding to your TBR first?
(And yes, “all of them” is a perfectly acceptable answer.)

Every Father’s Day since our kids were born, we’ve kept this one tradition alive: the kids pick out a new picture book for their dad, and we stamp their little handprints inside. What started as a simple idea has turned into the sweetest tradition one that captures their growth year by year, right alongside the stories we love as a family.

Now we have a bookshelf full of stories with tiny prints that have gotten bigger year after year.

If you’re tired of not being able to find great diverse books for kids, let me help you.

As a children’s book author and educator, I also share diverse kid lit book recommendations, family literary road trips, reading tips and resources.

What if everything you dream is actually possible?
⁠
Why Not? by Kobi Yamada is an encouraging picture book for kids and grownups too.. It’s an openhearted invitation to be bold, to dream wildly, to believe in the magic of who you are and all you can become.⁠
⁠
Beautifully illustrated by Gabriella Barouch, this follow-up to Maybe reminds us that someone out there is going to do something extraordinary, so why not you?
⁠
⁠
Save this for the little dreamers in your life or for yourself, when you need a reminder that you’re capable of something miraculous.

Why Not? is available now wherever books are sold. #compendiumliveinspired #kobiyamada #kobiyamadabooks #kidsbookswelove #kidsbookshelf #kidsbookreview #hereweeread #booksforkids

We recently went on a literary road trip to Kent, CT to check out Kent Falls State Park. We had lunch by the waterfall then made our way to House of Books @houseofbooksct and the charming Kent Memorial Library @kentmemoriallibrary. They are both a short 7-minute drive from the park and full of charm and stories waiting to be found.
