Welcome Back, Booklovers! The past few years I've been keeping track of Christmas picture books for Black Children and have even bought many for the kids in my family. My family loves Christmas but it's harder to find images of Christmas that aren't only white. So seeing more released in recent years has been a treat. So check out this post for a few of my favorites and if you want more check out my idea list.
This is a heartwarming story about a little boy named Jayylen who tries to raise money so their family can visit his brother for Christmas when he has to stay at the base instead of coming home for holidays. This is very relatable to so many young children who have a family member in the military.
This is a fun picture book where Santa has to spend a few extra days with a family when his slay won't restart after delivering all the gifts. But they soon find out Santa's not the idea houseguest and are ready for him to go!
This is a fun book about sharing different cultural traditions and food around Christmastime. The book includes a recipe for black cake!
Carla's favorite holiday tradition is making cornbread with her grandma. And when Carla accidentally eats Santa’s Christmas cookie, the cornbread is there to save the day!
When all the gifts are delivered Santa and his family have their own special celebration the day after.
It's a The Night Before Christmas inspired story centered around Three Kings Day. A family comes together and prepares for the three kings to come bearing gifts.
A book highlighting how different families celebrate winter holidays
