Ideal Bookshelf 1199: Asian/Pacific Islander Writers

In May 2021, on Instagram and in honor of AAPI month, you all recommended books by Asian and Pacific Islander authors, and there were SO MANY excellent ones, and so many different people that are supposed to fit into that label. This doesn’t even include everything that was suggested, although I tried hard to bring in as many as possible. I’m not sure if this is useful or totally too much, but I do feel like it shows how crazy it is to try to contain so many beautiful stories in one hashtag (and one heritage month!). ❤️📚❤️ We will donate 5% of the revenue from sales of this print to Hawaii Literacy (@hawaiiliteracy), an organization based on O'ahu. Their mission is "to empower Hawaii’s children and adults with essential reading, writing, and lifelong learning skills to strengthen themselves, families and communities." They also have a bookmobile! First offered in August 2021 Archival pigment ink print on fine art paper Based on original paintings by Jane Mount   BOOKS INCLUDED:
