This Friday I will spotlight books that I have books that I have came across while browsing The Happy Nappy Bookseller. The Happy Nappy Bookseller is a great place to find books contain people as color as the main character. The site is mostly young adult books. But it is a great place to too if you are looking for something to read.
Because I have so many books starred from THe Happy Nappy Bookseller I used random.org to decided how many books to include in this Friday Find. It didn't help much because it chose 7 books.
Marcelo In the Real World by Francisco X. Stork
Tales From Outer Suburbia by Shaun Tan
The Fold by An Na
Leaving Glorytown: One Boy's Struggle Under Castro by Eduardo F. Calcines
Gringolandia by Lyn Miller-Lachmann
A Strong Right Arm: The Story of Mamie "Peanut" Johnson by Michelle Y. Green
Secret Keeper by Mitali Perkins
