Homeschooling

Growing up I was a book geek! From as early as I could read, I would always have my head buried in a book, often reading multiple books in a sitting. I have passed my love of books to my own children, who also enjoy reading or listening to a good story. However, one thing that I realized is that there weren’t many books that featured characters that looked like my children. So over the years, I’ve been on a quest to identify the books that not only featured Black/Brown children in a positive light but also were written by Black/Brown authors. (I will write up a post that lists all of the ones we have in our library and wish list, but for now, you can also see some of them in my Amazon Store.) To celebrate Black History Month, I wanted to take a moment to highlight several amazing books by Black Women Authors. What’s even more special about these authors is that they are all homeschooling mamas in the Greater Philadelphia area!
