We Need Diverse Books (WNDB)

We Need Diverse Books (WNDB) is a nonprofit organization dedicated to promoting diversity and inclusion in children’s and young adult literature. They aim to ensure books reflect a wide range of characters, cultures, and experiences, allowing all readers to see themselves represented and to understand others better. WNDB advocates for authors from underrepresented backgrounds and works to challenge the lack of diversity in publishing. Their goal is to create a more equitable literary landscape, fostering empathy, understanding, and a broader perspective among young readers worldwide.
