Abstract | This study aims to understand how multiracial Asian American children are portrayed and illustrated in children's picturebooks, with a special focus on their racial identity development. Multiracial individuals are those whose parents are from two or more distinct racial groups (Reynolds, 2009; Viager, 2011). In this study, the descriptor "Asian" is used when referring to East, Southeast, and South Asians. Thus, a multiracial Asian American (hereafter MAA) is defined in this study as an individual with one Asian or Asian American parent and one parent whose racial background is not Asian or Asian American. This study provides insights on issues related to the quantity and quality of children's picturebooks on MAA children and how to support their racial identity development and wellness. (ERIC). |
