The Canadian Children’s Book Centre is a not-for-profit organization that promotes reading, writing, illustration, and Canadian diversity to its young readers. Their website links to a number of resources for adults and teachers in order to inform them on diverse, educational, and fun books for young readers. The CCBC has many suggested readings and resources through its History Book Bank, Social Justice & Diversity Book Bank, as well as its YouTube platform “Bibliovideo.” The centre believes that in order to reach its young audience, they have to go where their readers go: online! The YouTube channel thus informs, educates, and entertains young readers through live readings, crafts, informational videos, and more. The Canadian Children’s Book Centre has successfully taken their reach from in-person bookstores across Toronto to in-home readings across all of Canada. Since their inception in 1976, the CCBC has upheld its mission to provide young Canadians with authors and illustrators from Canada.
