About this item

A glittering celebration of queer families puts Pride gently in perspective - honoring those in the LBGTQ community who fought against injustice and inequality.Pride's . . . a day that means "Together, we are strong!"This joyful picture-book homage to a day of community and inclusion - and to the joys of anticipation - is also a comprehensive history. With bright, buoyant illustrations and lyrical, age-appropriate rhyme modeled on "'Twas the Night Before Christmas," it tackles difficult content such as the Stonewall Riots and the AIDS marches. On the night before Pride, families everywhere are preparing to partake. As one family packs snacks and makes signs, an older sibling shares the importance of the march with the newest member of the family.
