Jules (they/he) reads a lot of LGBTQ+ books in their spare time and is telling us about a few of their favorite ones for kids. October is LGBTQ+ History Month, and this month’s book is a great look at the history and evolution of Pride celebrations from pre-Stonewall movements to today. It’s a great nonfiction read - nice for kids who prefer that, or who want to mix up their genres a bit!

Jules reads a lot of LGBTQ+ books in their spare time and is telling us about a few of their favorite ones for kids. Jules is friends with the editor of The Heartbreak Bakery (and is listed in the acknowledgements!), but don’t think this is a nepotism recommendation: it recently won the Lambda Literary Award for best YA Novel!
