Subject: [CALIBK12] multicultural children's authors?

 

Hello Everyone, 

 

I am a high school librarian, working on my LMT credential. I am working
on a multicultural assignment for my elementary literature class, and
was hoping that all of you wonderful elementary school librarians could
help me with this - 

 

I need to collect a list of authors' names that write multicultural
stories for children. I am most interested in Asian and South
American/Hispanic/Latino authors...I need at least 50 names, so feel
free to send any and all that you think of my way! 

 

Thank you so much for your help!
