In June last year, I found the book “Pride Colors” by Robin Stevenson on the Pride display in the Nashua Library children’s room. It’s a board book so it’s made for babies and toddlers. It has bright colors and adorable pictures of children. The book promotes Pride celebrations as wholesome affairs.

Anyone who has seen Pride events knows there are unsavory aspects like the very unwholesome “family-friendly” drag show at Nashua Pride.
The one thing in the book that is inexcusable is the page that says, “Be yourself. Love who you choose,” opposite a picture of two kids holding hands. As adults, we know what that means. It means it’s OK to be attracted to anyone – same-sex, opposite-sex, multiple partners, and could include adults being attracted to children. Is that appropriate for a children’s book? Why should toddlers even be thinking about attraction? This is yet another inappropriate book in the Nashua Library children’s room.
