To celebrate National Day of Silence today, April 23rd I want to highlight some of the amazing books out there that celebrate, highlight, and tell the stories of the LGBTQIA+ community.
If you have a book you like to recommend, please let me know!
The 57 Bus by Dashka Slater
King and the Dragonflies by Kacen Callender
George by Alex Gino
The Gravity of Us by Phil Stamper
A Queer History of the United States for Young People
Every year there are the Stonewall Book Awards, including the Mike Morgan and Larry Romans Children's & Young Adult Literature Award that goes to books that have exceptional merit relating to the LGBTQIA+ experience. You can find this year's awards here, and find past years awards linked on that page as well.
We have many more titles that celebrate the LGBTQIA+ experience, lives, and history in our library so don't hesitate to ask for more and I can get you a list!
