Introducing Teddy: A Gentle Story about Gender and Friendship by Jessica Walton
4.0
It was a sweet story for young kids to show that's it's ok if you don't recognize yourself with the gender assigned at your birth. This time the author used the hero's teddy bear to show the reader how to be a good ally to your friends facing the same journey.
The illustrations by Dougal MacPherson were sweet and simple. I especially liked that my eBook was presented it like a mix of story book/audiobook, with a narrator reading the story, the text changing color and the pages turning as he goes. So that young readers can read this book on their own. It makes the reading even more interactive. The author, Jessica Walton, is a queer, disabled writer and speaker, so it's really nice to see such representation.
I've read this book as part of the #TransRightsReadathon (20-27th march 2023).
