Citizens of the world? Children’s exposure to representations of diversity, topics, text genres, and complex ideas prior to kindergarten entry

Abstract

There is currently a groundswell of interest in diverse books though children’s librarians have long championed diversity and inclusion (Horning, 2015). School and public librarians are genuinely passionate about exposing children to all of the world’s glorious wonders and people’s by diversifying library collections (Ishizuka, 2018). Thus, it seems natural that they would also expose the children they serve to a wide array of representations of diverse people, topics, and ideas through program offerings.
