Give this to anyone who exists in a gendered society. (Which means, as the book points out, everyone.) Highly recommended for school and public libraries.
The protagonists’ fears and worries are completely relatable and readers will joyfully join in the refrain of, “I’m brave! I’m strong! I’m five!” A first purchase for libraries serving young children.
Only Jeffers knows if this 2019 fable is about Trumpian terrors, the horror of late-stage capitalism, or simply a cautionary tale against greed that is as old as storytelling itself. Regardless of its intentions, this minimalistic masterpiece is a must-read for all ages.
