An illustrated guide to gender-diverse identities around the world, suitable for children 5+
Gender diversity knows no borders...
Exploring identities that span the Indigenous Two Spirit people, the hijras of the Indian subcontinent, the mahu people of Hawaii, the female husbands of the Igbo tribe and many more, Cassandra Corrigan beautifully demonstrates that gender identities beyond the binary are a world-wide phenomenon.
This lovingly illustrated guide is an important testament that genders other than male and female have always existed - around the globe - and comes with additional materials to help children uncover the gender identities from their own cultures.
Perfect for parents, children, educators and professionals who work with gender-diverse children.
Nonbinary genders shine in all their splendor. -- Kirkus Reviews
This book is a wonderful introduction to various gender-identities around the world. Before reading this book, I had no idea there were so many groups of people all over the world that recognized so many identities beyond the gender binary. It is very cool to get a glimpse of all the different cultures, through something that they have in common. -- NetGalley Reviewer, Educator
