They started on this wild and winding career path when they created Queer Kid Stuff-an award-winning original LGBTQ+ educational webseries for all ages-that has reached millions of families. More About the Author: Lindz Amer (they/them) makes queer stuff for kids and families. By giving parents and their kids a vocabulary to express themselves, Rainbow Parenting ultimately aims to create more empathetic adults-and spreads a message of radical acceptance in a world where it's sometimes dangerous to just be yourself. Divided by sections that address kids' individual ages-from infancy to kindergarten-this joyful and approachable book shares a bit of hope and starts with the understanding that anyone can spread queer joy. Lindz Amer, the creator of Queer Kid Stuff, an award-winning LGBTQ+ educational webseries for children and families, is an expert guide, leading readers through practical applications, important LGBTQ+ history, key lessons in intersectionality, pronouns, social justice, and more.

Rainbow Parenting is an indispensable steppingstone for adults who want to raise and teach kids in a queer and gender-affirming way but might not know how. While they may not be able to address every problem across the country, there's a simple place to start: right at home.
