Each spread features simple, poetic text for building vocabulary and empathy. This new edition includes discussion guide with age-appropriate questions for parents and educators.
We Are Little Feminists: Hair helps families and educators discuss race, celebrate difference, and challenge racism.
Created for 0-5-year-olds: the book’s photographs help infants, toddlers, and preschoolers to recognize faces, hair, and bodies that are both different and like their own.
About the Series We Are Little Feminists is the identity-affirming board book series developed to raise intersectional feminists. Children love photos of everyday kids & families, but only 13% of children's books represent our diverse world. We Are Little Feminists pairs beautiful photos with playful, rhythmic text to help families and classrooms stand against racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, and ableism.

"The board book market offers vast, untapped opportunities to introduce babies, toddlers, and preschoolers to so many different kinds of people. I'm glad at least one series has the pluck and moxie to give kids a fuller first glimpse of the world.
...You just hit the board book jackpot."
Seriously, if you haven't taken a look at these books then I urge you to run, not walk, to your nearest library or independent bookstore and grab yourself some copies. Any baby shower you bring these to will instantly make you the coolest gift giver in the room.

"These books are the most inclusive (and beautiful!) board books I have ever seen!
...Each board book is full of beautiful photos depicting all kinds of kids and families from all different backgrounds, traditions, ages, shapes, and skin tones. The accompanying text in each book is pragmatic and joyful, creating a board book that transcends age. Seriously. I read this set of books to my 4th graders and they were transfixed!
