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.
