... 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!

I think she gifted it to TT.

Rachel has given up writing because of how she's been treated by the industry, which is a crying shame, not just for Rachel but for children everywhere as her writing is brilliant.

I'm so angry with the children's publishing industry on her behalf. So many who should have had her back were utterly useless.

Oh thank you, I've never heard of her.

Neither have I, yet I have just discovered I am blocked 😂

😂 By the sound of it, you should take that as a compliment of the highest order!

I bought it for DGS but DD is a supporter of trans rights 😬 and madd a face when she saw the book! No doubt she's hidden it or thrown it out. I of course am a TERF in her eyes 😡

But there's literally nothing in the book that could be taken as being against trans rights!

Ah but there is! As we've all learned, everything is transphobic!

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

I wonder of Rachel is aware that 'some like it hot' is the title of a 50s film which includes men masquerading as a woman? Tony Curtis and Jack Lemmon both play men who are fleeing the Mob and join a troupe of dancers, both pretending to be women.

I'd be amazed if she isn't. It's a hugely well known film.
