Thank you for letting us know that you stand by our commitment to feature children's books by and about people of color and not to sell Limbaugh's "history" books for children. While the attack by Limbaugh was very visible, the crisis caused by corporate publishers and Amazon has a more devastating impact on the publication and availability of multicultural children's literature.
In the last five years, less than 10% of children's books published were about people of color. Our bookstore fights against this trend, but we cannot continue without your help. It will take sustained support from you and your networks to keep our progressive bookstore and webstore in operation and to continue tp promote access to progressive, multicultural children's literature.

Each year, the Teaching for Change staff selects some of our favorite books of the year. Here is the 2014 list of books for children, middle school, young adults, and adults in fiction and non-fiction. Of course, these are just a few highlights. The full list of 2014 books we recommend is much longer. Visit our bookstore and webstore to find many more. Remember, whatever you read, please pick up the book at your local library or independent bookstore or webstore. We encourage everyone to boycott Amazon, here's why.
