While I liked this book a lot, and appreciate that it is based on the author's own experiences going to the Pride Parade as a child with her two moms (real life pics in the back!), and the illustration style is engaging, there are a couple of the images that I could see being questioned. I am usually big on pushing for all representation knowing I can answer/respond in an age appropriate way for elementary kids, but in the crowd scene a couple are such specific references that I'm not sure I could answer questions if they came up. And they very well might. So I am torn.
This could be paired with Pride Puppy.

The audiobook of this has music underneath that fits the tone so well and the author reads the book wonderfully. It feels like sitting in a bookstore for story time.

Cute, but nothing particularly special about either the art or the words. Obviously I'm glad this is out in the world though, more queer books for kids!

This was super cute! I didn’t know it was a picture book when I tagged it in Libby but I’m glad I read it. I didn’t know that libby has for Picture books a read along with the audio book which is really cool. I would buy this for a kid in my life life.

This colorful, vibrant, happy book celebrates Pride and all those who participate. I love this sweet story of a young child and her moms at the parade. All the warm fuzzies!
