Grandad's Pride Reviews

Beautiful follow-up to Grandad's Camper, filled with heart and purpose * Families, Top Children's Book Picks for 2023 *
The protagonists of Grandad's Camper return in this tale of love, identity, and community. Woodgate's upbeat art brims with color and, aptly, rainbow motifs, depicting a supportive community diverse in race, ability, and self-expression. This is a quiet yet moving read with a powerful message: You don't need corporate sponsorship or larger-than-life events to celebrate Pride; all you need is love. A winner from beginning to end-and affirmation that Pride belongs in every community * Kirkus, starred review *
In this gladly intergenerational view of Pride, Woodgate offers a familial portrait that twins past and present * Publishers Weekly *
