Masculinity can have many different meanings – if only we allow the space for a multitude of expressions to coexist.

This is a kids’ book about masculinity. What comes to mind when you think of "masculinity"? Certain ways to act? Talk? Just simply be?

This book was made to help kids aged 5-9 understand the many facets of masculinity. We believe masculinity is a story which can and should be told in more than one way. Masculinity is not something which is done either "right" or "wrong" – it's a unique and individual choice. When we get to write our own stories, the world is a much fuller, more beautiful place.

A Kids Book About Masculinity features:
  • A large and bold, yet minimalist font design that allows kids freedom to imagine themselves in the words on the pages.
  • A friendly, approachable, empowering, and child-appropriate tone throughout.
  • An incredible and diverse group of authors in the series who are experts or have first-hand experience of the topic.
