Cultural Motivation
A major reason that children develop a fondness for reading is the feeling that they could be the main character in their favorite books. Children enjoy re-imagining their own world and exploring different life experiences. And while people all over the world enjoy African-American music, food, art, and history, many have not been able to read about these cultural mainstays in books. For this reason, our publishing company is committed to children's literature that focuses on the African-American culture. Expand your child's learning opportunities with books that have timeless appeal.
About the Founder
Author and founder Vivian Owens is a former teacher. She began writing children's literature for her own kids because she couldn't find any books that reflected African-American culture. In fact, at that time, less than 2% of books published in the United States focused on the black experience. The first books she wrote focused on showing parents how they can contribute to the educational success of their children. Now our library includes a diverse selection of books that inform and entertain young minds.
