The African American Children’s Book Fair is one of the oldest and largest single-day events for African-American children’s books in the country and is hosted by the African American Children’s Book Project (AACBP).  The  AACBP, a non-profit organization, was created in 1992 to promote and preserve children’s literature written by or about African Americans.
