Publisher Description
Young kids will develop a sense of pride when they read this book that follows a girl and her two dads as they prepare to walk in a Pride parade.
Pride is believing.
You are enough exactly as you are.
A little girl and her two dads discover the true meaning of Pride as they prepare their colorful flower crowns for their local Pride parade. When her preparations don’t go according to plan, the dads remind their daughter that it’s okay to make mistakes. They show her kindness and love, and that being happy with who you are is the most important part of Pride.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
In an affectionately rendered board book that establishes a multifaceted definition of Pride, a child makes flower crowns with two queer-coded caretakers before heading to a city parade. Each page includes short declarations from Moreno about what Pride encapsulates, from "believing. You are enough exactly as you are" to "speaking up" because "Your ideas are important." Meanwhile, the story unfurls visually in Nakul P.'s smooth, painterly style, which steadily increases light and color until the trio arrives at the lively event. Together, word and image emphasize overarching themes of celebration, individual brightness, and unequivocal support. Characters are portrayed with a variety of abilities, body types, and skin tones. Ages up to 3.
