Dr. Madison is an author who writes accessible nonfiction for all ages. The First Conversations series pushes the boundaries of public scholarship, translating critical theory into plain language for young children (and their grownups too).
“An accessible, important addition to any anti-racist bookshelf.“
Kirkus Reviews
You should be able to find a copy of any of these titles wherever books are sold, for less than $10 and I recommend picking up your set at the nearest independent Black-, woman-, or queer-owned bookstore.
If you’d rather order online, check out Bookshop.org (a great alternative to Amazon). They should also be available at your local public library.
We’re working on translating the books into more languages and formats. Thanks for your patience and support.
