With a focus on Apgar as a determined woman in the medical field, and an emphasis on her as a quirky individual, this book is an excellent choice for STEM/STEAM collections.
Whether used to explore the concept of gender expression or to model how to encourage people to express and live out their true selves, this is a heartwarming story of love and affirmation, and a flower girl who prefers a suit to a dress.
Readers of all backgrounds will enjoy this story of two Black brothers growing up and using their imaginations in a unique story full of mischief and mayhem.
Highly recommended for nonfiction and even parenting collections, where it will fly off the shelf with science-loving kids and neutralize any adult melodrama around talking to kids about sex.
