FREE Resources for Pride Month and Beyond
At Random House Children’s Books, we have pride in our pages. Use these free downloadable resources and the books featured in them to start conversations about LGBTQIA+ history and experiences, gender stereotypes, human rights, and the importance of celebrating yourself as you are and others as they are.
For even more book recommendations, visit our Read with Pride Pinterest board.

No one should have to grow up feeling alone in who they are, and these narratives ensure that everyone can feel seen, understood, valued, and celebrated. This brochure includes book recommendations and conversation starters for grades K-12.
