Pride and Joy: A Story about Becoming an LGBTQIA+ Ally by Frank J. Sileo, Kate Lum-Potvin

4.0

Pride and Joy is the story of a sister who wants to embrace the role of being an LGBTQ+ ally after her brother and his boyfriend are called names by a group of bullies. She has discussions with her mother and friends about what it means to be an ally and ensures that her actions are appreciated and necessary to her brother. The colour in this book is so wonderful and it will teach children lots of great lessons about unity and empathy.
The section at the back for parents to teach their children about LGBTQ+ topics is also amazing and the prompt questions will allow for really open and honest conversations that will definitely build trust and build an open dialogue between parents and children!
