Award-Winning Philadelphia Area Author, Tom Tracy, Launches Catalog of Diverse Kids Books to Counter Book Bans and DE&I Rollbacks

PHILADELPHIA - Rezul -- In response to the growing wave of book bans and the systematic dismantling of diversity, equity, and inclusion efforts across the country, award-winning children's book author Tom Tracy, founder of Tom Tracy Books, has released the Catalog of Diverse Kids Books—a curated collection of more than 150 diverse and inclusive titles by 100 indie authors from around the world.

Thanks to a successful Kickstarter campaign and the generous contributions of organizational sponsors, such as Books and Books Key West - the independent bookstore founded by the acclaimed children's book author Judy Blume, the catalog has already reached hundreds of families, educators, librarians, and counselors free of charge.  The catalog serves as both a resource and a statement: diverse voices will not be silenced.

Tom Tracy's own books are known for advancing the representation of diverse families, especially those within the LGBTQIA+ community. His work has helped redefine what children's literature can look like—centering love, identity, and belonging in ways that resonate deeply with readers of all backgrounds. As a self-published author, Tracy has consistently sought creative ways to donate his books to schools and other community organizations, making this catalog a natural extension of his mission.

"This catalog is a direct response to the currently erasure we're witnessing," said Tracy. "When books that reflect real families and real identities are being pulled from shelves, we have to push back—with visibility, with access, and with stories that affirm every child's right to be seen."

The Catalog of Diverse Kids Books includes titles that reflect a wide range of experiences—racial, cultural, gender, neurodiverse, mental health, physical disabilities, learning differences, and "non-traditional" family structures—and is designed to help educators and caregivers discover books that foster empathy, inclusion, and joy.
