Just dropped in for February 2022, a paperback edition of IntersectionAllies by Chelsea Johnson, LaToya Council, and Carolyn Choi. The hardcover of this tile has done phenomenally well, and Indie bookstores, teachers, and schools have loved this title.
The book has been featured on Huffpost’s recommended “Anti-Racist Books for Kids and Teens” and Keys Soulcare’s “5 Stunning Visual Books for All Ages,” as well as having a starred review in SLJ. It is listed in the new Consortium spring 2022 catalogue, but the book is dropping so quickly I want to call it out! Perfect for teachers and parents.

Praise for IntersectionAllies:
“The concept of intersectionality, widely known in academia but less so in children’s literature, is here broken down with ease and clarity. —Booklist
“If ever a book belonged in every pediatrician’s office, clinic, daycare, shelter, classroom and home, this is it.” —Literary Hub
“A welcoming resource for conversations about equality and social justice that shows readers how identities are made up of myriad influences.” —Publishers Weekly
“A cheerful, diverse cast of friends describe living the ally life in this progressive picture book…Their unwavering support for one another helps readers understand what intersectionality means and looks like…Highly recommended.” —School Library Journal (starred review)
“Diversity takes center stage in this welcoming introduction to intersectional feminism, a joyous affirmation of how we are all connected.” —TIME
