[Andy]

This reference and reader’s advisory tool focuses on multicultural books for children. Rochman divides the book into two parts: a section of articles organized by theme, and a section of annotated bibliographies organized by cultural experience and ethnicity.

Hazel Rochman, editor of ALA's Booklist, has compiled a fantastic collection of multicultural and global-issues books. Copyright 1993, so a somewhat dated list, but loads of good info. Also very compelling.
