This is such important research from @theclpe.bsky.social - and the findings show there's lots of work to do.

Research shows representative books can support self-identity, which is why our #BookTrustRepresents programme supports and promotes authors and illustrators of colour. (1/2)
🔊 Our 7th annual #ReflectingRealities report is out now! This year’s report shows a significant drop in the presence of racially minoritised characters in books published for children in 2023 in the UK.

Building on last year's Biodiversity Storytelling Summit, we joined #BookTrustRepresents author Uncle Brow Brows, who had been inspired by the event to host a "Book in a Day" session for children in Sandwell.

It was such a wonderful day! (2/4)
