You might like to begin here with my previous post where I shared the amazing and comprehensive work by my friend from Kinderbookswitheverything. She did a blog post about each SDG goal and also set up a series of Pinterest Collections. Her collections were aimed at children aged 5-8 and included titles published from USA, UK, Canada, New Zealand, and Australia.
IBBY Australia have also been working, for over two years, on this very important project. Our committee members searched for books for children in Grade 3 up to Grade 12 with a focus exclusively on Australia titles including indigenous works. Links and images at the end of this post.
You can read about the original IBBY.org project here. When you click on each goal you will be taken to a set of suggested books which were intended to be used in a book club setting. You can also access this here.
These three sets of book suggestions (IBBY Australia; IBBY/UN; and Kinderbookswitheverything) should really help you explore the 17 goals with students at any level of school and with so many possible titles you are sure to have several in your school or public library.
Here is the IBBY/UN selection for Goal One - No Poverty:
Here is Goal 2: Zero Hunger
Here is the page from the United Nations with links to the details of each goal.
You can access our suggested texts via our IBBY Australia web page and through Pinterest. (Images below).
