In an article in the Daily Mail, June 04, Malorie Blackman, the new laureate of children’s literature is quoted as saying ‘… white adults sometimes think that if a black child's on the cover it is perhaps not for them’. Did she really say that? Could someone in her esteemed position really make such a gross generalization? As a writer of ‘inclusive children’s literature, I was shocked to read such a statement. White people buy my Amara Para, Global Friendship books (which celebrate diverse characters from around the world white, black, brown and yellow) as much as people of color.

Though, I may be in awe of Qatar’s fantastic museums and wonderful places of culture I must confess I have never seen or heard anyone describe a celebration of Qatar or the Qatari people as cute.
