Multiculturalism has become a familiar topic in picture books around the world. The genre of multicultural children's literature approaches children by reflecting on their realities in a multicultural society and guides them to embrace the multicultural identity. Multicultural children's literature plays an important part in children's lives, purposefully it develops in the child reader values including morality and ethics, a sense of what is valuable in the culture's past and aspirations about the present and the future. Giving children access to all varieties of literature is extremely important as it teaches them to be open and curious about different cultures. It also helps them appreciate diverse ways of life. Children's literature transmits important literature and themes from one generation to the next. It is important because it provides children with opportunities to respond to literature; it gives them an appreciation for their cultural heritage as well as those of others. Children's picture books combine verbal narratives and visual figures, both the text and the illustrations are very important to the development of the story.
