It’s wonderful that you’re considering creating an illustrated picture book that addresses important topics such as transitioning, gender identity, and respect for trans individuals. Here’s a paraphrased version of your description:
„In this beautifully illustrated picture book for children aged 3-7, meet Benjamin and his mom, David. Benjamin proudly shares his mom’s journey of transitioning, emphasizing the importance of using the correct pronouns and treating trans people with respect. Benjamin explains the process of transition, from changes in appearance to the use of medication, with confidence and clarity.
When Benjamin’s cousin unintentionally misgenders his mom, Benjamin takes the opportunity to explain why misgendering can be hurtful and advocates for treating trans people with kindness. This book aims to empower and educate young readers about transitioning and gender identity, fostering understanding and acceptance. Through Benjamin’s story, the book covers essential topics such as pronouns, dysphoria, family diversity, and the significance of avoiding misgendering.
Filled with vibrant illustrations, this book provides a valuable resource for discussions with children about their loved ones transitioning or about trans individuals in general. It delivers a heartfelt message of acceptance and respect, encouraging empathy and compassion for everyone’s unique journey.“
