"Queer Mythology" by Guido A Sanchez is a gorgeous collection of mythology from around the world, centering on how these cultures have always celebrated Queerness, even though many of these stories have fallen by the wayside in favor of others that are deemed more mainstream. The artwork is stunning and the stories are diverse - it's not just Greek mythology. They're both easy enough for a middle-grade classroom and complex enough to hold an adult's attention. Representation matters, and this book honors that for the LGBTQ community. Thank you for letting me read this and give an honest review!

This book was one of my favorite that I've had the pleasure of receiving as an advanced copy. I teach gifted students, and my kiddos very much enjoy topics such as mythology. They will read anything they can get their hands on when it comes to a topic they are heavily interested in, and I just know that a few would LOVE the perspective of these myths.

Although I will not be developing a lesson specifically centered around this topic, I will definitely be purchasing this book when it is published, as I know that my students would use it as a resource in their mini research projects. From an educator perspective, it is so important to have representation and diversity included in our classroom, and I love that this does that, while also providing a topic of interest to my GT students.

I am very thankful to have had the chance to read this advanced copy. Thank you to the author, publisher, and NetGalley for providing me with this copy. A wonderful collection of stories!!
