Perfect for fans of What Are Your Words? and Julián Is a Mermaid, The Bi Book shows readers the many meanings of "bi," both in terms of the language we use to understand the world and to understand ourselves.

Many words that start with ‘bi’ mean two.

Bicycle. Bilingual. Binoculars. Biracial.

Sometimes, it can mean more than two. Like when it comes to people who identify as 'bi.'

Because some hearts love in a rainbow of ways.

This sweet, bold picture book is a gentle introduction to bisexual identity, by way of many different words that share the root "bi," that will become a staple for LGBTQ+ readers, parents, and educators for years to come.
A.J. Irving grew up in Boise, Idaho, writing stories and daydreaming about becoming an author. Now, she writes picture books and poetry on her big back porch in a tiny town near Jackson, Wyoming. As an author and former bookmobile librarian, A.J. is passionate about inspiring children to read. She received a B.A. in journalism and women’s and gender studies from the University of Oregon. She is also the author of DANCE LIKE A LEAF. View titles by A.J. Irving
