Real Kids. Good Books.
Ask away   Blog Recommendations   All Time Favorites   

Our children are gorgeously diverse and they love a good read. At the heart of Real Kids/ Good Books are authors and illustrators who are building a new diverse canon, book by dazzling book.

Themes include: children of color, LGBTQ, adoption, special needs, math, science and writing. And of course there is also a mishmash of miscellany and reblogged tidbits that strike my fancy as they float by.

Thanks for stopping by.

We are hosting our first Afternoon Tea for Asian Parents with LGBT Children

Are you the child of parents who only speak Mandarin, Cantonese, Korean, or Vietnamese?

If you are an LGBT person who has come out to your parents, is there now an atmosphere of tension within your family? Do they not want to speak about “it”?

Do you have difficulty discussing issues of sexuality with them? Is it difficult partly due to your limited language skills?

Do your parents feel isolated because they do not know any other parent who has an LGBT child?

Come to the next afternoon tea for Asian parents with LGBT children, hosted by Andre’ Ting.
