Speaking of selkies, I brought a copy of The Girl From the Sea (by Molly Ostertag) to my work a few months ago, and the kids have been loving it. Like, they like a lot of the books I bring, but that one’s been especially popular. I’ve seen groups of kids gathered around it, reading it together because they don’t want to have to wait until their friends finish it. It’s been read so much it’s starting to fall apart. So...anyone aiming to put together a collection LGBTQ+ kids books, take note.

In 1983, the 1981 book Jenny Lives With Eric & Martin, by Danish author Susanne Bösche, was published in England. The book was intended for primary school children and told the story of Jenny, a little girl who lived with her father and his male lover. It was quickly banned from schools after protests from parents and politicians who feared that it might encourage children to "experiment with homosexuality".

Hi folks! I'm starting a fresh blog since my old Tumblr was a wee bit dusty, so allow me to quickly introduce myself.

I'm Charli (she/her) and I'm a queer illustrator, writer, and lecturer. I have a lot of love for bright colour, strange creatures, and even stranger stories, and plan on sharing lots of these things on here.

I have a Spanish rescue dog called Boba, I love and regularly stream D&D, my favourite colour is orange, and *no TERFs, no Tories*.

My portfolio lives here: www.charlivince.com

Chat soon! 🧡

Happy Lesbian Visibility Day!

You COULD buy a high-vis reflective vest for every lesbian you know, or you could just share lesbian books so that kids everywhere can see stories about people both like and unlike themselves in their daily lives

.As the world's first queer children's bookstore, we can really only help you with one of those, but we also happen to think it's the more fun option anyway.

Here’s a link to shop for these books at the world’s first queer children’s bookstore (that’s us)! https://shop.aer.io/invisible_strings_bookshop

Joy Michael Ellison's Sylvia and Marsha Start a Revolution (2021)

Joy Michael Ellison’s Sylvia and Marsha Start a Revolution (2021)

Written by Joy Michael Ellison and colorfully illustrated by Teshika Silver, Sylvia and Marsha Start a Revolution (2021) is a fantastic snapshot of queer activist history. In the picture book, Marsha and Sylvia are often represented walking down a city street, arms linked, a golden halo surrounding them. Marsha has dark-brown skin and flowing honey-colored hair. Sylvia’s skin is light-brown; her…
