Hello, can anybody recommend me some children's stories (books or videos) that step outside the accepted "norms" of boy meets girl, girl is wide eyed with gratitude when boy agrees to marry her.
I'd love strong female characters, females running rings around the males. Males and females working equally to save the world.... that sort of thing. I like "zog" as an example of the second one.
I'd also love sane sex couples where that's not the main theme. IE I'm not a fan of "Kim has two mummies" type explanation books. I'd just like an actual story where by the by one or more characters happens to be gay.
Ds is six and has an alarmingly fixed view of love and marriage based on traditional fairy tales, any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
