A find and seek book— think Where’s Waldo, but a celebration of queer history.

We’re introduced to a set of figures on one page spread, each with a short descriptive paragraph, before being instructed to find them within a scene on the next page spread.

I wanted to love this book, but I found the selection of figures to be hit or miss. The inclusion of figures like Lizzo and Mariah Carey is confusing when there are so many modern queer icons to choose from.

I think this book was on to a great idea, but it slightly missed the mark in execution.

I received this book for free for an honest review from netgalley.

This book is so awesome and inclusive. My son's enjoyed it very much.

Thank you, Epic Ink, for the advance reading copy.

I do feel and see that this is a very good compilation regarding the evolving culture of the queer community with the mention of some very popular personalities. However, I do feel that the reading experience would be so much better with some extra pages with the illustrations a little bigger and more distinct than it is.

You will learn a lot from this book how far the community has grown with all the struggles and challenges they have faced in the last decades at a glance through this book.

This is a fun seek and find book that celebrates Queer culture through the years. It implements history and culture in the community. Each hide and seek page has an in introduction that explains what the page will be about and talks about the different figures that you will be searching for! I do think that some of the information is a bit outdated or does not go into full detail of things. It's very simplistic. I do like the end page that shows the changes of the pride flag throughout the years. There are definitely more flags in our community than what was listed. The glossary at the end was nice. I do think this will be a great book to give as a gift! If you liked Where's Waldo as a kid, you will like this. Definitely fun for all ages!
