ā€Sparkle is serious business.ā€¯-Miss Rita and her son. Enjoyed the authors reading this sweet, brave, glittery book about a boy whose father is coming to read to his class. Should he come as his drag queen persona? His son, and the reader, vote yes! Bright, fun illustrations including lots of verbs for getting glam! Librarians might like this one for Pride month next summer. #inclusive #lgbtquiafamilies #sparkle #beyourself
