A free anthology of books by black British authors is to be provided to every primary school in England. Reading charity BookTrust said the initiative was part of a drive to increase the diversity of voices in children’s literature. The collection, called Happy Here, is aimed at children aged seven and older and will be published on 5 August. It will feature writers including Yomi Sode, Clare Weze, Dean Atta, Patrice Lawrence and Sharna Jackson. The project is a collaboration between BookTrust, publisher Knights Of and charity Centre for Literacy in Primary Education (CLPE).
