Bodies Are Cool
by Tyler Feder
Age: Toddler-Kindergarten
Activism: Body positivity
Body: Skin, hair, eyes, face, fingers, tummies, legs, scars
Remarkably inclusive, each page spread contains 10-20 people representing a full spectrum of our real world. The text is short and rhythmic with the repeating phrase "Bodies are cool!"
The busy pages are best suited for a one-on-one read but the text is simple enough for storytime and read-alouds. As a one-on-one read, children can really investigate all the different ways people can appear in our world. Hopefully, adult readers can pause, talk, and investigate with them.
Edit: My 5-year-old daughter was enamored with the spread that shows a gathering of people in the past and a gathering of people in the present/future. She loved imagining the people grow and change, even observing that a transboy was "hiding inside the girl all along."
