Abstract | Diversity, equity, and inclusion has long been the focus of educational scholarship. This study explores the potential of wordless books with protagonists of color for children to access portraits of diverse characters and engage with various stories. To expand the existing body of literature on diversity in picturebooks, this study offers two contributions to the field. First, a focus specifically on diversity in an understudied subgenre of picturebooks: wordless picturebooks, particularly those that include protagonists of color. Secondly, this study explores the accessibilities and possibilities for teachers to use such books to include representation of people of color, introduce topics related to experiences of people of color, and further initiate dialogues around equity, inclusion, and diversity in classrooms.
