Do you know of any books with diverse characters? As in, books containing children with different backgrounds?

If so, please post about them below.

I also have a list of non-fiction biographies about people from different countries / backgrounds / ethnicities / abilities - were you including non-fiction picture books in this discussion, Victoria?

Thanks for sharing that list, Viviane.

By all means share non-fiction books too. For both my benifit and those of other members of the group, it would be great to have any books that could potentially fall under this heading listed.

Adding “The New Bike” By Jessie Kinder.

It is very well illustrated and features people from multiple place’s, ethnicities, and races. It is a great book with a wonderful story and lesson.
