BALTIMORE — Reading Partners is celebrating black history all year with a special reading calendar.

It includes monthly recommendations of children’s books with characters of color that are written by black authors and illustrators.

The non-profit hopes its efforts will provide more opportunities for black children to see themselves in stories.
