Bodies Are Cool

“My favorite book about body diversity!”

“Of course as your resident fat friend who does eating disorder work every baby I know is getting a copy of this gorgeous book about body diversity! Now available as a board book! Did I buy 10 copies of this book? Yes I did! No baby friend of mine is gonna grow up fatphobic, transphobic and ableist if I have anything to do with it!! Another great pick IMO is The Paper Bag Princess which my girl power/feminist baby go-to.”

“My favorite children’s book about body positivity. Shows an entire spectrum of bodies, abilities, sizes, etc. It helped me have positive conversations when my child hit the age where he started noticing the differences in people’s bodies.”

“Honestly great for toddlers and teenagers alike. Such a warm, straightforward way to normalize how different bodies can look and exist without shame or weirdness attached to it. Feels like the kind of messaging a lot of us probably could’ve used growing up too.”

“A joyfully inclusive book. Love reading this to my kids. Wish it had been around when I was a child...”

“The representation in this one is sooo good! There are bodies with leg hair and stretch marks, top surgery and c section scars, prosthetic limbs and grey hair, vitiligo and tummy rolls. There were even identical twins! 👯‍♀️ Also a picture book, this is the board book edition.”
