Reddit mentions of And Tango Makes Three (Classic Board Books)

A similar thing happened to some penguins at the Central Park Zoo and someone turned it into a children’s book.

That or A is for Activist are our go-to baby shower gifts for friends.

My favorite is the one I linked, and another by the same author called Rosaline, but they're only available in Kindle format. I want hardcovers, darnit! >:(. They're also available as adorable short videos on Hulu, but only if you have Hulu Plus.

For books you can actually pick up and hold, I like The Different Dragon, because the fact that the main character has two moms isn't the focus of the story, it's just a "oh by the way" sort of thing that normalizes it, and one of his moms is important in the story.

I just got my board book copy of And Tango Makes Three in the mail. It's the story about the two male penguins who hatched an egg, and since it's a board book, my little one won't destroy it by chewing on it :P

I'm working off lists from The Advocate and Autostraddle to find more books. I don't want to recommend ones I haven't actually read through yet, so hopefully that helps.

Don’t forget the original animal gay couple: Tango Makes Three

Is a children's book in the works? A sequel to the gay penguin one?

Or is that the wrong narrative?

In the UK kids are being taught in primary schools that gay parenting is better than usual parenting. There's a book about penguins and how one penguin is being brought up by two male penguins and that this penguin is happier than all the penguins with normal parents. My teacher friend showed me and she's at the point of quitting education because she doesn't feel comfortable teaching political untruths to children. She says most of her colleagues absolutely hate straight men so have no problem teaching at and some are set to publish their own versions.
