WASHINGTON, May 7, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- As educators, students, and families begin to celebrate Children's Book Week (May 6-12), the Diverse Books for All Coalition is thrilled to announce the purchase and availability of 145,000 diverse books building on the Coalition's commitment to increase access to books that reflect the diversity of communities and children across the U.S. This initial collective purchasing initiative, involving 18 of the Coalition's members, addresses the critical need for high-quality, affordable diverse books for ages 0 - 8 so that more children growing up in low-income communities can see themselves and learn about others in the pages of books. The 145,000 books have an estimated retail value of $1.5 million and will be shared at low or no cost to the families, educators, and programs these organizations serve.

Key Points:

Across the country, 27 million children are growing up in low-income communities where access to books of any kind is critically limited, much less diverse books that are relevant to their lives.
Through an innovative model of collective purchasing, the Diverse Books for All Coalition is furthering its goals of educational and racial equity by increasing access to and affordability of young children's books representing diverse races, cultures, identities, and abilities.
"As members of the Diverse Books for All Coalition, we hold steadfast to the belief that representation matters," said Ernestine Benefict, chief communications officer of ZERO TO THREE.
The Diverse Books for All Coalition is a national consortium of nonprofits and membership organizations working together to increase access to affordable, diverse children's books.
