Thesis (Ph.D.)--Cardinal Stritch University, 2018.

To address the need for high-quality, culturally relevant diverse books and research critically analyzing nonfiction books, a three-phase content analysis examined the accessibility to and the cultural authenticity, accuracy, and relevance of award-winning children's books. These nonfiction picture book biographies about contemporary/21st century African Americans were published from 2000-2016, contained within the Database of Award-Winning Children's Literature, designated for elementary-age children, and in hardcover format. Grounded in multiple theories such as critical literacy, intersectionality, and cultural relevance and responsiveness, these theories addressed historical, political, social, and cultural aspects related to picture books. Key methodological features included two coder/analysts, coding matrices, open-ended response charts, intercoder collaborative discussion notes, reliability checks, and triangulation. The research revealed the following key findings: 1) few books received awards, and among the award-winners, few copies were found in urban libraries located in high poverty/African American population zip codes, 2) the presence of a significant amount of authentic African American cultural content appeared to be directly related to a book with a focal subject/main character identified as an African American and/or having an African American illustrator, 3) males dominated as illustrators and focal subjects/main characters, 4) as a group, the books provided an imbalance in the depiction of family structures, and 5) two award-winning books were found to be culturally authentic, accurate, and relevant. These findings are significant because they serve as evidence of the continued need for access to high-quality, relevant children's books about African Americans that present a balanced African American experience.
