As a genderqueer parent I have really loved reading this with my kids. It’s a beautiful depiction of diversity and allows them to reflect on their own gender with what story they relate to most. My eldest is very confident in being cisgender, and my youngest changes depending on the day. It’s so healing to see them grow up with the knowledge that gender isn’t binary and that they are accepted and loved for being exactly who they are.
This is the book that I wish had been in my home growing up and that I also wish had been around when my kids were little. With a simple but profound central message - it feels good to be yourself - this book provides an opportunity for families and schools to have easy, open conversations about gender with kids, including cisgender, transgender, non-binary and agender experiences of gender. This is an incredibly positive, affirming book, with strong messages of acceptance, love and support for all children, no matter their experience or expression of gender.
