Books for mixed race children

My son is 9 and mixed race. Are their any books that he could read that aren't for under 5s? It's something we discuss but I'd really like him to have books and information so he sees he's not the only one.

I can't recommend a book in particular, as I generally buy picture books aimed at younger children, but have a look at Willesden Books, which might give you some ideas.

@delilabell I have a younger LO - are any particular books that were especially good for the pre school age group that you’d recommend?

Hi OP. Are you looking for fiction with mixed race characters or non-fiction?

HelloViroids, I like My Two Grannies.
