10 Children's Books Exploring Mixed Heritage

Ruby, author of the blog GrowingUpBlackxican.com, and mother of two kids ages 5 and 4, shares recommendations for children's books exploring mixed heritage:

"I realized that a lot of the books available only dealt with skin color, language or one culture. Very few dealt with mixed race, mixed roots or mixed heritage. I've made a list of books I would buy for my kids, after reading reviews and being recommended by friends. Talking about our Mixed Heritage may come easy but I feel it's important to prepare our kids the diverse world we live in today. Exposing them to other cultures, races and even other mixed heritages is a must!"
