Included in a blog post and resource list at https://booksbeyondbinaries.blog/2019/06/10/non-fiction-about-gender-and-trans-e... A good starting point for teaching children about gender, but there is very little text for the children - most of it is for the adults (who probably already know it if they're buying this book). I do think it's a little odd that it seems to explain gender as something you choose from day-to-day. The wheel is nice for small people, and nearly every child can find themselves represented in the illustrations. This brightly illustrated children's book provides a straightforward introduction to gender for anyone aged 5+. It presents clear and direct language for understanding and talking about how we experience gender: our bodies, our expression and our identity. An interactive three-layered wheel included in the book is a simple, yet powerful, tool to clearly demonstrate the difference between our body, how we express ourselves through our clothes and hobbies, and our gender identity. A short page-by-page guide for adults at the back of the book further explains the key concepts and identifies useful discussion points. no reviews | add a review
