Maleak's in the Closet (Paperback)

Have you ever wondered how children view the lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer (LGBTQ) community, how they make sense of it? Jaeqwan is very insightful for an 8 year old, but occasionally he has to seek assistance in understanding the world around him, and Maleak can become quite emotional at times. We encourage readers and facilitators to create space for experiencing emotions, especially sadness. This is particularly important with males. In this volume, Maleak decides the closet is the safest place to live. Jaeqwan attempts to coach Maleak out, but to no avail. It will take some very special people to convince Maleak to live out loud. The "My Mom's a Stud" series addresses adult topics from a child's perspective. It is designed for anyone seeking a non-threatening way to facilitate discussions surrounding civil rights challenges including racism, sexual harassment, bullying, and hate crimes. The series was specifically created for those seeking a better understanding of the LGBTQ community. The writing segment is a great start for anyone interested in becoming an author. Improving upon writing skills, exercising creativity, and increasing knowledge and acceptance of others also increases a sense of self-worth. Open dialogue is important and encouraged. Develop the story line using the words and cultural experiences of those involved. Share your knowledge, write a segment, or assist in whatever way that is most comfortable for you, your family, or your client/group. Send your completed version of the workbook to the publisher. We will create an edited version of the book. Your name will show as a co-author of the book, and your friends will be able to purchase the book directly from the distributor (see details inside). These books are well received by male and female children and adults from all backgrounds and cultures. Enjoy your experience.
