Here is a website that I found useful when learning about this topic:

• The Importance of Diversity in Library Programs and Material Collections for Children - References and Resources

Without a doubt, one of the most exciting discoveries I made doing this project is the Illustrator Duncan Tonatiuh

• I have a stack of books of his that I am working my way through. They are all phenomenal examples of books that can be used to celebrate Mexican culture.
