NOT HE OR SHE, I’M ME is out Today!!! ✨It feels unreal to me that this *first* book by
@awildword is officially finally here!
I started the drawing part of it 3 years ago. I went to my first book fest this weekend and it was really emotional to get to see it in the hands of sweet curious kids, dope parents, librarians, and one teacher getting the book so an incoming non-binary kid in her classroom would feel welcomed.
It was like a real life WAVE of trans love.
I hope the book feels like that to you too! (COME to the BOOK RELEASE on FRIDAY
@booksofwonder if yer in NYC!!! Info on the last slide!!!)
