The online world is buzzing with excitement and anticipation as the global online diverse children’s literature celebration known as Multicultural Children’s Book Day (MCBD) draws closer. This on and offline diverse kids’ and YA book-related event is in its tenth year, and its mission of getting diverse children’s books into the hands of readers, parents, caregivers, teachers, and librarians has never wavered.
To date, the non-profit has worked diligently to get over 13,000 free diverse books into homes, classrooms, daycares, organizations, and libraries.
In a nutshell, MCBD is a non-profit dedicated to getting diverse books into the hands of readers, parents, and educators.
