NOTES

In this board book told in simple rhyming verse, siblings use gender-neutral pronouns to welcome a new baby into the family. Accompanied by adorable photos, this text depicts a much-loved baby who will decide their gender when they're ready-and will be loved no matter what. "Is it a boy or a girl?" "It's a they!" There's a new baby in our family! In this board book told in sweet rhyming couplets, we are invited to celebrate a new baby, and their gender-neutral pronouns, from the point of view of their excited siblings. The baby is snuggly and sweet in their bright pajamas, they love to snooze and sway...and when asked if they're a boy or a girl, we're told, "We aren't sure of their gender yet-and they bring us so much joy." Accompanied by delightful photos of babies and siblings of diverse ethnicities, it's clear that no matter which gender pronouns baby eventually chooses, they are loved just for who they are, and always will be. Key Selling Points - The new baby is here-and they will choose their gender identity when they're ready! Accompanied by photos of babies and siblings of diverse backgrounds, and told in rhyming verse, it's a welcome-baby book for all. - It's a They! is one of the first baby board books acknowledging families choosing to use gender-neutral pronouns for their babies, a choice embraced by more and more families who wish to let their child choose their own pronouns when they're ready. - The author has worked extensively with trans youth and has her own "theybies" at home, who inspired her to write this book. - Also available as a dual-language English/French edition, It's a They! / Bienvenue à notre adelphe!
