Kindergarten–Grade 3 Title List

The culturally affirming books in the Our Community: Haitian Heritage collection offer a mixture of bilingual Haitian Creole/ English and English-language literature that celebrates Haitian experiences in Haiti and in the United States. All students, regardless of their home language or culture, can benefit from connecting with stories that feature Haitian and Haitian American protagonists. The eight titles listed under each grade level are part of that classroom collection. The three titles indicated with a check mark are also available for purchase as a three-book take-home pack.
