This blog was developed as a resource for teachers and educators looking for multi-cultural books to share with children. I have compiled and cited various reviews of the books listed in this blog, and have added web resources and other tools that will help teachers use the books for instructional purposes. These are all books I have read personally or have previewed a hands on copy of.

Dumpling Soup
Dumpling Soup
Written by: Jama Kim Rattigan
Illustrated by: Lillian Hsu-Flanders
Elementary Grades
The author uses her childhood memories to write about New Year’s celebrations in Hawaii. The book develops a sense of family warmth associated with the holiday. Because the book
is based on a personal memoir, it can be used to motivate children to write about their own memories about various family holidays.
