HUGE THANKS TO OUR PARTNERS

We are a community of creatives driven to promote diversity via access to inclusive reading materials in the home and classroom, so children everywhere feel represented in the books they read. We believe children of all colors should grow up with a wide array of books featuring children of all colors.  Contact us if you would like to support or join our team as an Author, funder, member or friend.

Books with Color was founded in 2020 by two Charlotte  authors who saw first hand that minority children were greatly underrepresented in children's literature. The mutual will to "be the change" and correct this social injustice led our founding  Authors to organize and partner  with more authors, supporters and friends to solve this problem together, one classroom and one book a a time.

Our Mission  is to increase the accessibility of inclusive and bi-lingual children's reading materials via strategic partnerships between diversity driven authors and the communities who support them.

Our vision is to provide all children ample access to age-appropriate reading materials featuring diverse characters and situations that more accurately reflect the colorful world we live in.
