Sitti's Bird: A Gaza Story by Malak Mattar
5.0
a special picture book written and illustrated by a child of Gaza. Sometimes a picture is truly worth a thousand words.

a sweet little story, useful for (yt middle class) folks to introduce the concept of transgender identity to their children. Kelly is a real one.

will need to mull it over a bit more & I'd probably have found it more impactful had I read it at an younger age.

Yes, abolish cops and prisons but not forBen 🗣
