Welcome to the Children's Book Database for early learning and care providers. The EABCC team has reviewed booklists, databases, and children's literature reviews to identify books that you can use to address the social/emotional needs of children in your care and that reflect the unique experiences of military connected children. Each book entry includes a summary, suggested uses and a discussion forum where you can share your ideas, activities, and passion for children's literature. If you have questions contact Jane Lanigan, Washington State University Vancouver at jlanigan@vancouver.wsu.edu.

This Military Cultural Competence for Child Care Providers series is designed to help center and family home child care professionals provide culturally competent, responsive care for military families and their children.
