Transformative Potential of LGBTQ+ Children's Picture Books

Více o knize

Focusing on over 150 children's picture books that represent LGBTQ+ identities, Jennifer Miller analyzes their evolution from the 1970s to today. She identifies dominant tropes and historical shifts in representation, linking them to broader sociocultural changes in LGBTQ+ visibility. The book addresses the material constraints affecting the production and distribution of these works while offering a critical lens to assess their transformative potential. Despite some texts reinforcing heteronormative ideals, Miller argues that these books contribute to a vital world-making project that reflects and shapes understandings of gender and sexuality.
