Annie's Plaid Shirt by Stacy B. Davids,
illustrated by Rachel Balsatis
This inspiring children’s picture book is a Next Generation Indie Book Awards Finalist, Foreword Reviews' INDIES Book of the Year Awards winner and the Mom's Choice Awards® GOLD Recipient.
Written by a licensed clinical psychologist, school psychologist, and former special education teacher Dr. Stacy B. Davids, who herself yanked pink bows out of her hair as a child, this is a tale of a typical tomboy, a child born a girl, who feels uncomfortable in a dress, but loves wearing her Plaid shirt everywhere..
One
day, Annie’s mum tells her she must wear a dress to her uncle’s wedding, and
even takes Annie and her brother clothes shopping to buy a gender-conforming
suit for him, and also dress for her…
Annie has never felt comfortable wearing a dress, it makes her feel strange and
unhappy! Will her mother ever
understand? Is this a touching tale of parental acceptance and compromise, and
celebrating Annie’s individuality?
Annie then has a creative idea, will her mother understand
her wish?
Wonderfully illustrated by children’s book illustrator Rachael
Balsaitis
Reading age 3-8 years old.
