Pride Families

Amie Taylor (she/her) is an LGBTQIA+ writer, theatre maker and workshop facilitator. She runs a theatre company that produces productions and workshops for young people about LGBTQIA+. She contributes regularly to BBC Radio London, where she speaks on LGBTQ+ arts and culture. She has previously published The Big Book of LGBTQ+ Activities and The Monster Book of Feelings. When she's not writing and theatre making, she works for 3 days a week at Fun Palaces, and organisation that campaigns for cultural democracy so that everyone has a say in what counts as culture, where it happens, who makes it, and who experiences it.

Discovering and celebrating diversity is at the heart of this tenderly illustrated children's book. It's a wholesome and affirming read that acknowledges the many forms families can take, whether they're already part of our lives or yet to be encountered. As a trans masculine individual who identifies as bisexual, I found it comforting and empowering to see myself represented in these pages. I believe many Pride families will find resonance in this book, and it can serve as a valuable educational tool to promote understanding and acceptance of the beautiful variations that exist in our world.
