The Brown Bookshelf’s 5th Annual 28 Days Later Initiative

The Brown Bookshelf has just announced the authors and illustrators who will be spotlighted during their fifth annual 28 Days Later initiative, a celebration of veteran and emerging children’s authors of color. The event will take place during the month of February and coincides with Black History Month in Canada and the USA. For those interested in books by and about people of color, The Brown Bookshelf is a fabulous resource and you’ll want to check in daily during 28 Days Later to see the treats they have in store!

The Brown Bookshelf is an excellent resource. I am trying to plan ahead and post books with characters of color all during February as well.
