Welcome to Litsy!

Drag Story Hour! Story Hour opened up with Reading Rainbow. That took me back📚🌈

The messages in the books: be yourself, live your authentic self, love yourself. There are many kinds of families.

No children, nor anyone else, was assaulted or groomed at this story hour. I saw children smiling and dancing, believing that they too, could be anything, could be a magic in the world.

“My heart skips a beat as I put on a dress and I look at my Dad who is anxious and stressed.“

I would love to use this for any grade but specifically K-2 to teach children self-love and self-acceptance from a very young age so they grow up with the skills and knowledge on how to be confident in themselves.

Speculative fiction. Published 2021. This is a newer rhyming story that “touches on the subjects of gender identity, self acceptance, equality and diversity.“ The story is based on the author as a little boy. The pink shadow represents the little parts of people that they feel like they need to hide from others but it always follows us around because it is part of us. This story teaches readers that we should be proud of ourselves.

Great book by an Aussie author. Suitable for all ages. 0 to 110. I read it while unpacking books at my volunteering in my old schools library. Went to my local Indi bookshop and he too was unpacking books and there it was again! Now it‘s mine.😍.
