It’s Okay to be Me – QUILTBAG Story Time

For QUILTBAG Story Time this morning on JOY Breakfast, Rach & Dean dived into ‘It’s Okay to be Me’ by Renny Rocco.

Featuring fun illustrations and an inclusive story that will appeal to kids and adults alike, this heart-warming, illustrated story follows the experiences of a young boy growing up in a world that doesn’t always accept us for being different.

But it’s OKAY to grow up different, even when you are a  little boy who plays with dolls, loves dress-ups, and singing and dancing.

It’s ok to be me touches on issues of bullying, gender non-conformity, friendship, self acceptance, and self-love.
