What Are Your Words?: A Book about Pronouns by Katherine Locke

3.0

Good and we need more books in this vein but omg so much text. I think the illustrations are stronger than the text here--very inclusive and covering a variety of people including those with/without disabilities, different skin tones, clothes, and gender expression. The text is really dense and feels denser with the way every person's words (pronouns but also identifiers like "friend" or "loyal") appear above their heads. It feels like Locke wanted to write an informational book about pronouns but then decided to do a story instead and, combined together, neither is quite as effective or smooth as it could be.
