A warm book that introduces the concept of gender identity to the youngest listener from writer Theresa Thorn.

Some people are boys. Some people are girls. Some people are both, neither, or somewhere in between.

This sweet, straightforward exploration of gender identity will give children a fuller understanding of themselves and others. With child-friendly language, It Feels Good to Be Yourself provides young listeners and parents alike with the vocabulary to discuss this important topic with sensitivity.

      Starred review from April 1, 2019
      Thorn offers an inclusive primer about gender that integrates vocabulary words and definitions into the text (“Non-binary is a helpful word that can describe a kid who doesn’t feel exactly like a boy or a girl”). Illustrations feature gender-expansive individuals going to school, making art, and spending time with family, normalizing the expressions. With heavy lines and textured forms, the images by #OwnVoices illustrator Grigni are a blend of jewel-toned shapes with textured lines reminiscent of block prints. The spirit of free expression and creativity infuses every spread of this inclusive exploration. Ages 4–8.
