And Tango Makes Three

First, I love penguins. So a story about penguins is generally going to be intriguing. This story is based on real life, also.

Second, it's a story with LGBTQ+ representation (specifically, gay representation) written in a way that can definitely connect children to learning about different relationships and family structures. I'm in favour of there being more any-queer representation books that have positive outcomes for people of all ages. I didn't have any as a child, and I would have significantly benefited from their existence.

Our next generations need them, though it'd be nice to see more human queer people than animal queer people.

I finally got to read the little book that has been such a fuss in various places. The book, though labeled as fiction (at least by the Library of Congress' subject headings) is actually the true story of two male penguins who form a couple in the Central Park Zoo and raise a baby penguin together. The story is a heartwarming, endearing one that children and their parents will enjoy. It also features very cute illustration work.
