2018 — A milestone year for Just Us Books

2018 was an exciting year for Just Us Books. We thank all of our friends and supporters for our success. 

We kicked off a celebration of our 30th year of continuous publishing, with an event at the Schomburg Center,  saw the release of We Rise, We Resist, We Raise Our Voices, published in partnership with Crown Books for Young Readers. We published four titles under JUB and sister imprint, Marimba Books and received several honors recognizing our contributions to children's literature and diversity. School visits and speaking engagements enabled us and many of our authors and illustrators to engage with students, parents and teachers around the country. We thank all of you who helped to spread the word about our efforts and purchased, reviewed and recommended our books as resource tools. There could be no Just Us Books without all of you. We look forward to partnering with you in 2019. 


And we continue…
