This is a great resource for kids and young adults. There's so much different terminology in the LGBTQ+ community so this is a great simple way to review some of them. This is much more simplified version of definitions because there's no way you can encompass every word in every way. Many people take the terms in their own way.

I really like the set up of the book. Each page had a word, part of speech, definition, ways to use the words in a sentence, and some fact about it. The book is colorful and breaks up information so it's easily digestible by kids. There were also many great resources listed through out as well.

This is an interesting resource for new and old LGBTQ+ language. Covers a wide history of terms and usage.

This is a very useful and informative dictionary for kids, for terms relating to the LGBTQIA+ community. It was very readable - I would say that the lexile level would be appropriate for 5th grade and up. There were good graphics and shorter information blocks that were easy to read and aesthetically pleasing. There was an abundance of information on the ballroom movement which was very interesting. Overall, this would be a great addition to school and public libraries to provide information for kids on LGBTQIA+ terms and concepts.
I would highly recommend this!

Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for the ARC!

I think this was a little more of a miss than a hit. Some of the words and phrases are interpreted differently by different groups and individuals, so it's hard to condense them into a single meaning applicable to the queer community as a whole. I think the author tries her best but doesn't quite hit the mark. Of less importance but still relevant: a lot of these words are either historically derogatory (which the author does specify) or sexual in nature, and I believe that the book is better suited to the young adult market. Finally, there are resources listed in the back matter but no sources from which the author claims to have acquired the information presented in the text.
