A little girl tells that reader all about her Maddy, who is “something in between, and kind of both, and entirely their own”.
I love the depiction of a non-binary parent. It is a very nice celebration of the relationship between a parent and child, each of them being as they are. Most of the time Magination publishes books that any child can pick up and understand. And while that is true of the front matter, the story, the back matter is quite detailed and way above the heads of most kids who might pick this up on their own.
