Diversity in Our Library Challenge

Your challenge will be to select 5-10 books for the library collection that reflect some element of diversity. You will be acting as concerned citizens who need to PROVE to the library board (me) that these books are worth the money we have to spend on them. For each book you pitch, you will need a strong rationale!

Each group must select at least one from the following categories:

Young Adult (YA) General Fiction Non-Fiction Early Reader or Picture Book Graphic


 * Sites to use:**

Goodreads--a great place to search for book lists of all kinds We Need Diverse Books United States Board on Books for Young People Notable Books for a Global Society Rich in Color--this list offers many books with characters of color Children's Book Council--great article on religious diversity in children's books Lots of public libraries have great lists of books
