In honor of Black History Month, here’s Part 2 of a list of 20 books that every young Black child should own/read. I feel this list is important because Black children need to see themselves in the books they read. Feel free to add to the list!

Note: Here’s the whole list here

I owned 5 of these. Loved them all.

I read Roll of Thunder, Hear My Cry like eight times when I was a kid. I loved that book. I need to make sure my baby sister reads it when she gets old enough.

Yes! This list <3
