This brightly illustrated children's book provides a straightforward introduction to gender for anyone aged 5-8. It presents clear and direct language for understanding and talking about how we experience gender: our bodies, our expression and our identity. An interactive three-layered wheel included in the book is a simple, yet powerful, tool to clearly demonstrate the difference between our body, how we express ourselves through our clothes and hobbies, and our gender identity. Ideal for use in the classroom or at home, a short page-by-page guide for adults at the back of the book further explains the key concepts and identifies useful discussion points.
This is a one-of-a-kind resource for understanding and celebrating the gender diversity that surrounds us. |

PreS-Gr 2. This primer on sex, gender, and identity is an ideal title for caregivers and educators to share with children. An opening "Note for the Grown-Ups" instructs adult readers on how to use and discuss the book with kids. The text addresses young readers directly ("This is a story about you") and goes on to define sex (a guess based on body parts observed at birth) and gender identity ("who you feel like inside, who you know yourself to be"). A middle section features a number of illustrated clothes, toys, and accessories accompanied by the question, "What do you like?" A removable "Gender Wheel" that students can turn to complete three sentences ("I have," "I am," and "I like") using a range of terms/expressions (gender neutral, trans, not sure, etc.) is also included. Bardoff's illustrations are colorful and bright and depict a diverse group of carefree children playing together in a variety of settings. VERDICT A solid package for families and educators interested in an introduction to gender identity. Elaine Fultz, Madison Jr. Sr. High School, Middletown, OH. 40p.
