This timely book offers preschool and kindergarten teachers practical, research-based strategies for how to use culturally relevant picture books to discuss social justice and equity with young children. It includes activities and dozens of recommended children’s books that will help students understand their own social, cultural, and linguistic identities.

Challenging outdated literacy norms, this book calls on educators to center picture books about children’s different identities, talents, and lived experiences. The authors show how picture books rooted in social justice and equity become powerful tools for fostering critical thinking, empathy, a sense of belonging, and meaningful dialogue. Through shared reading and thoughtful discussion, teachers can help young learners explore big ideas, such as fairness, culture, and identity.

Now is the time to place powerful stories in the hands of young learners. Let this book be your guide to cultivating classrooms where equity is not just an ideal, but a daily reality.
