Abstract
Aunt Waka's message to Rinko illustrates two of the many potentials of multicultural children's literature: to en able nonmainstream children to see others who are like them reflected in literature they read and hear, and to help them build self-esteem and feel pride in themselves as part of their culture. Yet the underlying message of multicultural literature is one that benefits all children.
