A picture book that addresses the limitations to "boys" and "girls" as the only options for gender choices, especially in the bathroom. It was slightly confusing to my 11 yo and I at first but we figured it out after reading the back story. ...more

I can see both teachers and parents using this to help themselves and their children and students discuss the issue. I actually think I like it better than the first Jacob book and I'm not sure why. ...more

Good to know this exists in case it becomes an issue at my schools.

9/2/2019 ~ A timely story about the need for safe restrooms in public places.

(side note: I found the experiences of the two characters slightly confusing when they were being chased from the restroom.
