Every Month, NEA's Read Across America highlights books for young readers that explore a topic related to diversity and inclusion.
The theme for February is Celebrate Black History.
Celebrate Black heritage, tradition, and achievement when you share the stories of Black people throughout history and inspire young readers to learn more about their relevance today.
Here are the recommended books for the month. Find discussion questions and more resources on their website.
