I would use this book to talk about how families can look different. Some kids have two moms, a mom, and dad, just a dad... I will also use the book to show the importance of celebrating one another.

This book uses color to portray happiness and that a party is occurring. Children get to see what different families look like as they go throughout the book. This book uses different shapes to portray different people of all shapes and sizes.

The library where I used to work had a Drag Queen Story Time. Cherry Lemonade read the book to the kids. A mom & her children showed up late & missed it. I offered to read to her kids instead. She politely declined & said it wasn‘t the same as Cherry Lemonade reading it. People try to shut down these story times, but that mom was disappointed to miss it. That mom is awesome. #dragqueenstorytime
pickUsing colorful illustrations and simple sentence/line structures, this book acts as a tool to talk with kids about Pride. The info in the back offers talking points and activities different age levels can do, and I loved the explanation of each line of the narrative that is also in the back.

We love this picture book about a LGBT+ Pride Parade.
The text is very simple, great for little ones and grade schoolers, and the reading guide offers a fuller explanation of different groups in the parade, as well as age appropriate ways to ask questions and talk about sexual orientation.

I unfortunately don't have any #diversepicturebooks at home to photograph, but my job has allowed me to share some amazing books with the world that promote gender diversity and LGBT pride and I thought I would share one here for #marchintoreading
Hanging out at the reference desk. Check my awesome GLBT book month display! (No, I don't know why ALA decided on that particular iteration of the acronym, but I love the poster art from "This Day in June.")
