Blow a kiss. Mouth the words. A fun, sing-along book with a drag twist that encourages kids to embrace all the playfulness of drag culture written by a founding member of Drag Queen Story Hour.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Asked what inspired the creation of the latter book, the author said, \u201cI wanted to share a different message than many LGBTQ-related kids books: there\u2019s no bullying, no coming out, just fabulousness. And that joy and positivity encourages kids to embrace their unique selves. When they read this book, I hope they think don\u2019t just want to dance in someone else\u2019s shoes \u2013 but to design their own from their wildest imaginations.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Asked\u00a0\u201cWhat do you hope kids learn from this book?\u201d the author responded, \u201cDrag is about finding something in yourself\u2014 bold, fearless, and completely original\u2014and turning that into reality. I hope these books inspire kids to look to their inner selves and not be afraid to let them shine on the outside as well.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Some book review organizations lauded the books:<\/p>\n<p>Kirkus Reviews: \u201cThe classic children\u2019s action song gets a fabulous twist.
