Whether for a queer family seeing their culture reflected, or as an age-appropriate introduction to young children about the nature of Pride celebrations, this abc book is perfect. Julie McLaughlin‘s bright graphite & digital illustrations are visual puzzles busy with activity & Robin Stevenson‘s rhyming text bounces along with an exciting overarching narrative about a lost dog. Ages 3-8 #Canadian #LGBTQ #kidlit

Different ABC books are aimed at children with various reading skills. This one can be used for both pre-readers, who are learning the basic concepts of letter shapes and sounds, as well as older children, who will likely enjoy the visual puzzles: the illustrations contain many objects that start with each featured letter. Each page has a lot of action and lends itself to encouraging children to decode visual storytelling.

This beautifully illustrated picture book told a sweet story of a lost and recovered pet at a Pride parade. It was an absolute joy to read out loud.

The illustrations were fantastic! The colors were bright and clean, & the style was adorable. The people showcased a wide variety of body types, skin colors, ages, and relationships.

What was unexpectedly fun was a list of words at the end, setting up a scavenger hunt through the story. 🌕🌕🌕🌕🌗
