Since reading is such a great way to show young children some examples of African American people that made a difference, preschool parents may find themselves looking for books geared towards children five years old and younger. Here are a few recommendations.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Dream Big, Little One <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">and <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Follow Your Dreams, Little One<\/span><\/i><\/h4>\n<h6><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">By Vashti Harrison<\/span><\/h6>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Dream Big, Little One<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> is based on black women, and <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Follow Your Dreams, Little One<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> is centered on black men. These board books are a great way to familiarize young children with prominent African Americans. These books feature famous creators, athletes, heroes, and every day role models.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Little People, Big Dreams: Harriet Tubman<\/span><\/i><\/h4>\n<h6><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">By Maria Isabel Sanchez Vegara<\/span><\/h6>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Minty, who later became Harriet Tubman, was born a slave in Maryland. Harriet was able to escape slavery, and then made it her mission to help other slaves in the South gain their freedom too. The book includes wonderful illustrations, a timeline, and historical photos. Parents will want to check out the other books in the <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Little People, Big Dreams <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">series.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">We Shall Overcome: The Story of a Song<\/span><\/i><\/h4>\n<h6><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">By Debbie Levy<\/span><\/h6>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Beginning in slavery times, this story about a song moves through the history of slavery, segregation, and the Civil Rights Movement up to present day. The song brought together a group of people who courageously fought to overcome the inequalities they faced. This picture book is a great way to sequence major events of black history.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Bookmarks: Celebrating Black Voices<\/span><\/i><\/h4>\n<h6><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">A Netflix Series<\/span><\/h6>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Stories help children make sense of the world around them. In this series, celebrities read picture books by black authors in an engaging way. Each episode is about five minutes long and was made with the preschooler in mind. Parents can use the episodes to help create meaningful conversations at home.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The books listed here are only a small portion of the books for young children concerning Black History and famous African Americans.
