Pride Families by Amie Taylor
4.0
An introductory guide to queer identities, the many different dynamics of a queer family and queer terminology.
I think this was a lovely introduction to the queer community for children and I like that parents were included with their own section so that a parent and their child can learn together. The illustrations were really pretty and very inclusive and diverse. I’d love to buy some prints from the illustrator. I appreciate the normalisation of pregnant trans men, i’m so happy that was included!
The only thing that knocked my rating down a bit was the definitions of the sexualites. These definitions are constantly evolving so i get that it can be tricky to define them like this but, especially with the lesbian one, it doesn’t just include women anymore. There are many nonbinary and genderqueer people who identify as lesbian, me included.
