Joanna McClintick is a debut children’s book author and licensed social worker at the LGBT Center in Manhattan, the oldest organisation of its kind in the United States. She wrote this poem for her children, and it has become a tradition to read it at their annual brunch the day before the Pride parade with family and friends. Joanna McClintick lives with her family in Brooklyn, USA.Juana Medina is the author-illustrator of Juana & Lucas, which won the 2017 Pura Belpré Author Award; Juana & Lucas: Big Problemas; Juana & Lucas: Muchos Changes; and many other titles and has illustrated numerous picture books, including Smick! by Doreen Cronin and I’m a Baked Potato! by Elise Primavera. Born and raised in Bogotá, Colombia, Juana Medina now lives with her family in the Washington DC area, USA.

The illustrations are clear, colourful and show positive images of a happy family, as well as moments from marches past and present. I particularly like the final double-page spread which is packed full of a great diversity of queer people and families all enjoying a day out on the streets celebrating love.
