We won’t send you emails very often—just things like our upcoming book launch announcement! If you’d like to be on our list, please sign up here.

Thanks, and be well,

Sarah (& Ian!) Hoffman

You Are You

April 22, 2014 by Sarah

"Waiting," Camp You Are You, 2011

“Waiting,” Camp You Are You, 2011

We’d like to tell you about a new project celebrating gender-nonconforming kids that we are supporting, and we hope you will support it, too.
 
You Are You, a photobook about gender unique children by photographer Lindsay Morris, will be coming out in October from fine art press Kehrer Verlag. The book documents a summer camp for gender-nonconforming children and families attended each year by many of our friends–a groundbreaking, heart-opening place where these kids get to truly be themselves, as they so often don’t in their daily lives. For the past six years, Lindsay has been attending the camp and documenting what she so aptly calls “the story of the first generation of children allowed to lead an openly LGBT childhood.”
 
We’d love to see our readers support this project–by contributing on Kickstarter, posting on Facebook, tweeting, and just talking it up wherever you go online or in the world. The Kickstarter campaign will be up until May 14, and we hope you will consider a contribution.
 
-Sarah & Ian

Testimonials

“Jacob is back in a timely story about book censorship, broaching the topic in a relatable, kid-friendly way with plenty of room for discussion…There’s a lot to like here: the child’s-eye perspective on the impact of book bans; the gentle depiction of why representation is important; and the ending that doesn’t offer a saccharine resolution, but leaves room for hope…A helpful conversation starter for children experiencing book bans and the grown-ups seeking to explain them.”

Dana Rudolph, Founder and Publisher of two-time GLAAD Media Award-winning parenting blog Mombian August 26, 2024

Praise for our books

“Like the first book about Jacob, the message is about acceptance. Simple lyrical writing introduces the setting and the characters from the opening lines.”

Oregon Coast Youth Book Preview Center June 27, 2019
