75 Picture Books Featuring Asian Children & Families
Books are an invitation for children to see themselves in the stories they read and an opportunity for them to look into, and immerse themselves in, the lives of others. This approach is known as "mirrors, windows, and sliding doors." Representation matters. It is essential that every child has access to books that reflect their own lived experiences and feature characters that look like them. This provides a mirror to identity, validates their experiences, inspires self-confidence, and builds connections. All children should have the opportunity to see themselves as the stars of their own stories. It’s also important that books provide an authentic portrayal of children whose backgrounds, abilities, and circumstances may be unfamiliar to the reader. In this way, children can develop an appreciation for the full spectrum of human experience from their earliest years.
