Written by Lindz Amer. Illustrated by Kip Alizadeh.

Hooray for She, He, Ze, and They! celebrates the many different ways people can feel like themselves. It introduces a variety of pronouns that someone might use, but rather than diving into detailed explanations of each, it keeps the focus on the joy of finding a pronoun that feels right. The story highlights how meaningful and respectful it is when someone uses the correct pronoun for you.

This book is a great introduction for younger kids to what pronouns are and why they matter. There’s a thoughtful “Dear Grown-ups” section at the end where the author shares their personal story, which I think both kids and adults will find valuable. Kip Alizadeh’s colorful, joyful illustrations of children throughout make the book feel like a true celebration. It would be a wonderful addition to any school or home library.
