Children's
Gay Pride


June: the month of summer vacations, trips to the beach, lazy sun-drenched days in parks, and Pride celebrations across the nation. Here at Powell's, we find ourselves especially proud of the number of kids' books with GLBT content or characters that we can offer. New titles are coming in monthly for kids of all ages, like Leslea Newman's board books Mommy, Mama and Me and Daddy, Papa and Me, Patricia Polacco's beautifully rendered picture book In Our Mothers' House, Dale Peck's YA novel Sprout, and more.

There are 97 books in this aisle.
