... it doesn't even mention sex or gender! Not even once! What the fuck did TRAs find to object to about it?!

If you have small children and don't have a copy, I'd strongly recommend it- it's lovely!

Think this is the wording but may not be in the correct order. Its a picture book though.

I think the book has a particularly positive and accepting message for children who may have health issues or disability: they’re shown enjoying themselves along with everyone else.

I should order it. Actually I should go into a bookshop and ask if they can order it, so they know people buy it.

Will have to give it a read ☺️

It’s a lovely, positive book and should be on every nursery/reception class bookshelf

Never read it so can't comment.

It was deemed 'transphobic' as it says your body is perfect as it is so you don't need to cut your breasts off or invert your penis to be happy

It was produced by Trangender Trend, wasn’t it?

Or maybe Rachel said something that made her and her book a target.

It’s perfectly obvious there’s nothing in it that’s “transphobic” so it can only be considered problematic by association of one sort or another. Had Rachel sold it through the usual channels she had been used to, it would have not have raised an eyebrow.
