Five bowties for Molly's Tuxedo, a tender celebration of daring to be yourself - on picture day, and every day! Molly's honest journey will mean so much to anyone who has been pressured to erase themselves, but especially to gender nonconforming gals who all-too-rarely find themselves centered.

There is so much about Molly to love-she is a pretty big deal! She is confident, joyful, creative, and never unkind even when others try to stop her from being her authentic self. There are so many great details here: Molly's desire to wear pants with pockets in which to carry treats for stray dogs shows that she is caring; Zoe standing up for Molly, telling a classmate that yes, girls can wear tuxedos shows us how to be an ally. Molly's class picture is perfect and put a big smile on my face. I love this book!
