OwnVoices: Diverse Reading List

As part of the Teachers’ Reading Challenge 2023, our partners at the Open University have put together this list of ‘Own Voices’, a selection of picture books where the identity of the main characters matches that of the authors. This can help you discover authentic stories told in new and exciting ways. This is thanks to the fantastic work of Kelly Ashley, lecturer in Reading for Pleasure, who curated this booklist for us.
