This is a great resource for kids (and some adults). The only change I would make is that the descriptions seem to be inconsistent in their audience's age. Some of the descriptions were more detailed as far as dates, etc, and other parts of the descriptions were overly simplistic.

The Big Book of Pride Flags is a straightforward and adorably illustrated book filled with a variety of the most common and well-known pride flags out there. It's a super useful resource, as it shows us what the flags look like, what they represent, how long they've been around, and who made them. Anyone who has ever had trouble keeping track of the flags will find that this book helpful, as will anyone who isn't sure they know that many flags. It also encourages kids to design their own flags at the end as an activity, along with some helpful reading guide questions. Definitely recommended!

A really comprehensive guide to a good variety of pride flags that exist. Easily understandable for all ages, with resources to help those who want to know more.

Adorable illustrations and such an informative book on the pride flags and what each means. One thing I wish was included was definitions for different types of attraction. I felt like the definitions (at least some) where just lifted from an infographic made for adults. I think changing some of the language to simpler terms of providing definitions could have been helpful. Also, as a lesbian, I found the definition of lesbian in this book to not be completely aligned with my understanding of the term. However, I believe the definition used represents what lesbian used to mean, historically, so I understand the definition's use. Overall this was a great book. It would be perfect for a kid in that age 4-8 range, someone who still likes picture books but can handle more and unfamiliar words on the page.

This book was a lovely educational tool for young children learning about pride flags and what they all represent.
I loved that the artwork was inclusive of disabled people and people of colour.
The explanations were easy to follow, and were inclusive too.
This book will be a fantastic resource for many, many people, especially teachers of young queer kids.

This is a very short and basic, but equally important and informative, introduction to the different pride flags and how the rainbow flag came to exist. I didn’t realise that the colours on the flags had meanings other than that the flag was for a certain group of people (for example bisexual).

Review to come to Goodreads/my blog in June 2022.

I received this book from Netgalley in exchange of an honest review.

I just was in love with that pretty pink cover + I am always very interested in learning more about topics and I was curious what kind of things would be in this book about pride flags.

In this book we learn about various pride flags. From those for separate groups (like gay or bi) to the rainbow flags. How it all started (and who made the flags) and when each flag was made and also by who. It was quite fun to read though I did feel like more could have been said about things. 

I definitely was surprised that some flags are still so new. I mean there are ones from 2010-2013. I had expected that the flags were a tad older.

I loved how the flags were shown. Not just here a flag, but a fun image showing the flag. For instance as a cellphone case, or a tattoo on someone's arm.

However... I do feel this could be BIGGER. It is beautifully named The Big Book of Pride Flags, but it is only 48 pages. I guess most flags are named/shown, but as I said the text is very basic/simple, I wouldn't have minded just a bit more on that front. More information. 

But I did enjoy this one and I absolutely love the art. I loved that I learned new things (and once again was thinking if I was Bi or Pan). I would recommend the book.

A great introduction to the many and fabulous Pride flags of the LGBTQIA+ Community. Glad you also included some history of how the flags have developed and changed over time eg Rainbow flag. In addition also give what the colours symbolise in each flag too. The illustration's were bright and clear and showed the members of the Community with the flags instead of just showing the flags on there own. In addition showing how members of the Community would share and show the flag too, eg phone covers, tattoos, patch on a bag.

Thanks net gallery and Jessica Kingsley Publishing for a ARC.

This was a great book! I would consider myself fairly knowledgeable about LGBTQIA+ flags, but I definitely learned some more with this book.
I think it would be an excellent addition to any school or library, as it uses clear language and has great, inclusive illustrations.

A lovely, short read perfect for little minds. As a parent striving to teach inclusivity, tolerance, friendliness, and love, this title is definitely one I'll be adding to the list for teaching!

A really fun and informative look at not just the original pride flag and its origins but all of its recent changes and additions to the family too!

This is the first pictorial glossary of the LGBT+ flags, including their history of when each of their flags was invented and how they evolved. The colour symbolism which was truly interesting, as a person who has studies colour symbolism within Media studies and literature this has been truly informative, and I will use these descriptions in future lessons involving colour symbolism.
I thoroughly recommend this for both primary and secondary students and it would be perfect for those who would like to be informed more about the history of LGBT+ representation.

I loved reading this book! I think it's very positive and uplifting and informative. I think the illustrations match the tone of the book and will engage children and young people. A great resource for all and I hope to include books such as this in my teaching to create a more inclusive classroom :)

This is the second book by this group I've read and I think they do great work! This is a picture book explaining a brief history of each flag of the LGBTQ+ community, who created it, what the colors mean, etc. The illustrations are really nice and vibrant .

Thank you to netgalley for a free copy in exchange for an honest review!

Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for the opportunity to read an advanced copy of “The Big Book of Pride Flags”. This is not sponsored and all opinions are my own.

This book gave an overall of the many different pride flags that exist. For each flag, they included a photo of it, the historical context surrounding it, and explained who it represented.

I really enjoyed the visuals and the graphics! It was very cute and reader friendly; would be a great book for a child to read.

cute wee book, that is very much suitable for a younger audience. it's colourful and appealing, with a use of language that is accessible without being condescending.

It covers the most common pride flags, which I think makes it slightly redundant for those that have been involved in the lgbtqia+ community for a while, but a great introduction for the young or those who've only recently found an interest in learning more.

the art is also very nice and inclusive of a variety of peoples. the person on the nonbinary flag page is definitely goals.

if I had to be specifically critical I would mention that the layout is a tad odd on an ereader, expecially on the "history of the pride flag" spread page, and this part of the book is repeating what was already said on the first few pages

A nice book with all the options in the LGBTIQ+ community. Lots of colourful drawings make it more accessacble for young people, who do not like large amounts of texts.

Thank you to the publisher and NetGalley for providing an eARC of this title in exchange for my honest review.

Me when I read the synopsis:

For the past couple of years during pride month, I have made done a series of Instagram posts about the history of each pride flag and the meaning of the colors used. So, I literally flew out of my seat when I saw this pop up.

The illustrations are amazing, bright, and full of colors. I think there is a perfect amount of information that would be easy for children or anyone to learn about. (Even though, I would love more info or facts on each flag, but I have already researched the flags so *smiles in gay*.)

The Big Book of Pride Flags is an adorable picture book that explains all the pride flags and the meaning behind the colours. It is beautifully illustrated and I loved it.

A brilliant, accessible overview of the pride flags. As a 33 year old member of the LGBTQ+ community, even I learnt things from this book!
