Representation is key to helping the next generation of queer people - and this book is bursting with so many amazing role models that you can't fail to be inspired to be the best version of yourself. Full of colour, warmth, and divine illustrations - this book is a must-read for anyone who wants to be reminded of the importance of community at any age. --Ben Pechey, author of The Book of Non-Binary Joy

Gender Heroes is a bright and beautiful book for a generation of young people who will be able to learn about such a rich tapestry of LGBTQ+ individuals. Essential for schools!--Jamie Windust, author of In Their Shoes: Navigating Non-Binary Life

Top review from the United States

Sara R
5.0 out of 5 stars Pride is all year long. Fighting for LGBTQIA+ rights is a 24/7 job.
Reviewed in the United States on August 28, 2023
Gender Heroes is a colorful portray of individuals who have and continue to fight for equal rights, making a difference and making history! Each page gives a short bio of the person (basically a quick page about how amazing they are) and pairs it with a bright and cheerful illustration. Not only will your little reader learn about great activists like Marsha P. Johnson and Sylvia Rivera but also about individuals making an impact in politics, media, and even sports!

Some fun facts from the book:

“Sarah McBride is the first and highest-ranking openly transgender elected official in American History.”

“Mauree Turner is the first openly non-binary state legislator in the history of the United States of America.”

“Chris Moser was the first openly transgender man to represent the United States in an Olympic trial event”

I don’t want to spoil all of the amazing information but I strongly urge you to check out this book from your local library or grab a copy to own. You and your little reader will be left feeling inspired by all of these Gender Heroes!
