Every year in June, we celebrate Pride! But what does Pride mean? And how do you celebrate it?

The Meaning of Pride
Colorful celebration of what Pride means shown through LGBTQA+ role models.
This picture book starts with the historical background of some leaders who fought for their rights at Stonewall. There’s a breakdown of what LGBTQA means. The book also shows how celebrities, sports figures, politicians, activists, and others celebrate Pride. I love the mural-like illustrations throughout that add so much to this picture book.
At the back of the book are mini-biographies of some of those in the LGBTQA+ community. Also, there are mentions of other books that can help in discussions.
A fun way to start off a conversation of Pride week!
