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.

Blockhead: The Life of Fibonacci (2010) by Joseph D’Agnese, illustrated by John O’Brien. 
More math geek out. Fibonacci was a gifted mathematician. He’s also learned a lot as a merchants son living in northern Africa in the late 1100’s and basically brought Hindu-Arabic numbers to Europe along with a lot of other mathematical ideas.
