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.

Seeds (2005) text and pictures by Ken Robbins. 
Summer is the perfect laid-back time to do some little science explorations with your kids. This book can kick off the inquiry with clear pictures that give little ones a great introduction to the world of plants. So as you’re enjoying the summer days, make some guacamole, keep the seed and let it sprout on your window sill.
