I am a huge fan of dual language books.

What’s more, along with being written in both English and Spanish together, One of a Kind Like Me / Unico Como Yo features a Hispanic family supporting their child’s desire to bust gender boundaries when choosing a costume for the school parade.

What I love most, the child’s choice of costume is not the problem; finding the items to create the costume Danny envisions is a welcome challenge.

From Kelly's list on picture books to explore gender bias.
