Abstract	The use and importance of culturally relevant literature in the elementary classroom is discussed in this article. Common classroom practices with regard to use of literature and a review of the need for culturally relevant literature that provides students with windows and mirrors into lived experiences are both explored. Ways to identify and use culturally relevant literature is provided, including a list of book awards, tips for selecting titles, and best practices for using them with students. Social media and grassroots movements that pertain to diversity in children's literature will also be addressed. Elementary teachers, librarians, and professors in teacher preparation programs will benefit from this information on using appropriate, relevant children's books that align with diverse cultural experiences.
