I found this book to be extremely educating and engaging. I loved the way the author used the illustrations to invoke conversations in a child friendly way. I was also extremely grateful for the resources at the end of the book including the pronoun chart!

The Pronoun book is a great teaching tool for any kiddo! The illustrations in the book are beautiful, and the simple explanation of pronouns and gender identity is simply phenomenal. The author does a great job at using examples and scenarios of each gender identity and using each pronoun in a sentence so children can understand how to use them. I especially enjoyed the scene when you were taught what to do when you use the wrong pronoun, and how to simply ask someone their pronouns when you meet them. This is something we need to get used to and this book does an excellent job. I can not wait for publishing and I hope you all enjoy this book too.

What a cute, simple yet informative book! Great for all readers, young and old. The cute, diverse illustrations really contributed to the reading experience.

In particular, older readers will likely appreciate the Tips and Resources for Adults, Pronoun Chart, Glossary of Terms, and Sample Letters to send to schools and parents of your child's friends.

This may not provide much new information for those already familiar with topics relating to gender identity and pronoun use, but it is a nice review.

I wish one of the character examples could have used she/they or he/they pronouns, but this was a great read!

As the title suggests, this book is aimed at teaching children about different pronouns, why they are used, and why using appropriate pronouns is necessary, It is aimed for children but this should most definitely be read by every person.

I just absolutely loved this book. I loved the simplistic way pronouns and other terms were described. I also truly loved how the author added the tips for adults and a pronoun chart, they illustrations were beautifully done. I honestly have nothing negative to say about this book.

Thanks to netgalley, Jessica Kingsley Publishing, and Cassandra Jules Corrigan for the opportunity to review.

This picture book is for EVERYONE! Adults and children alike will learn something new from this fantastic book. Cassandra Corrigan introduces pronouns in a factual manner. Corrigan then explains that gender exists on a continuum. She uses illustrations, definitions, and terms that are easy to understand for folx of every age.

I believe that this book should be required reading in every class (from preschool to high school). This will also be a go-to present for children in my life. This book deserves all of that stars!
