COMMUNITY REVIEWS

My Daddy's Not Like Other Daddies submitted by SBNB on June 10, 2022, 10:50pm Nice simple book to introduce kids to the fact that not all families look the same and there is no "correct" family.

A nice intro to not all families are alike submitted by mickplu on June 13, 2022, 3:52pm Written in very simple terms with beautiful illustrations, the book explains trans, non-binary parenting to a pre-school audience. The moral to the story is that love is the binding ingredient to any family.

Beautiful submitted by trina05 on June 14, 2022, 7:25pm Wonderful illustrations and straight forward statements that anyone can easily process and appreciate.

Lovely submitted by choichr on June 24, 2022, 10:10am This book uses simple words and the text is easy to read. The illustrations are also quite expressive. The book is very to the point and can be a great teaching tool. This book would probably best be paired with a conversation.

Endearing Illustrations and a Wonderful Story submitted by molubird on June 28, 2022, 7:41pm What a lovely book. It explains a transmasculine person through the perspective of his child in a way that I found easy to understand. I loved the movement and detail in the illustrations. As a trans person myself, that such positive books exist is so reassuring.
