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

4.0

I loved this introduction to pronouns for young readers! I thought the book did a nice job of discussing that everyone has pronouns - some people are confident in theirs, while others are unsure, but everyone has them. The only reason I reduced the rating by a star is that I think the book could benefit from some information for readers in the back. Discussing pronouns can be a topic caregivers aren't totally familiar with, so a discussion guide could have been really helpful. Even as someone who felt confident in pronoun discussions, I wasn't familiar with ze/zir or ey/em, so I could have learned more from a discussion guide or author's note.
