This book has a non-binary character and the authors spend a page and a half explaining what that means. There is no mention of sex. It’s not rough. The character just explains that they don’t feel like they’re a girl or a boy, that they don’t want to be put in a box. The example given was “you’re a girl so you must like the color pink and be bad at math”, a statement that is not always (or even often) true.
One reviewer said they talk about the bathroom as if it were a terrible thing. Every child uses the bathroom. The character says that it’s not really a problem for them because most places have family bathrooms, meaning anyone can use it. Simple question. Simple answer.
I am a 62 year old grandmother. I’ll be fine reading this with the grandkids. Start a good conversation regardless of your perspective. Plus, this is a really good story from a children’s author we respect.
