When You're a Boy by Blake Nuto

adventurous hopeful inspiring lighthearted reflective relaxing fast-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? Character
• Loveable characters? Yes
• Diverse cast of characters? No
• Flaws of characters a main focus? No

4.0

A short picture book with a cute, simple-ish but calming artstyle and tender messages. All start with “when you’re a boy, [this is what society expects]” and ends with “but I’ve learned [something better]”. 

 

Definitely recommend to kids, but every age could learn something from it.
