The Multiracial Child Resource Book

I was poking around the web the other day and ran across this book, published by an organization called the Mavin Foundation. It's called The Multiracial Child Resource Book, and here is the description from the web site:

As America experiences a multiracial baby boom, parents, teachers and child welfare professionals must be equipped with resources to help raise happy and healthy mixed heritage youth. Published in 2003, this groundbreaking, 288-page volume edited by Maria P. P. Root, Ph.D. and Matt Kelley, offers 35 chapters to assist the people who work with children to serve multiracial youth with compassion and competence. Providing both a developmental and mixed heritage-specific approach, the Multiracial Child Resource Book provides a layered portrait of the mixed race experience from birth to adulthood, each chapter written by the nation’s experts and accompanied by first-person testimonials from mixed heritage young adults themselves.

I haven't seen it myself, but it sounds like a great resource. If anyone has seen it or owns it, please let us know how it is in the comments.

The Mavin Foundation, by the way, looks like a wonderful organization itself. Apparently, it is the nation's leading organization dedicated to "celebrate and empower mixed heritage people and families." Hear, hear!
