A note from Dom:
The USA edition has a new cover with purple finish, some new activities AND some added GAGA *squeals in gay*. There’s still MORE to come from this edition, so I’m keeping some of it under wraps, however here’s just *some* of the US Rainbow Icons from the book!
‘Free To Be Me’ is an interactive and illustrated LGBTQ+ journal on Self-Love, Pride & Finding Your Inner Rainbow. This is the book I didn’t just want, but needed in my darkest times growing up. I wanted to create a book that I know so many out there still need. Something to remind a queer person, no matter what age or stage of their life or journey they are on - they’re valid, seen and accepted by this book and me. This book is your safe space to be you, always. Age 12 years old - 103 years old appropriate. Published by Penguin Workshop and Penguin Teen US.
THANK YOU so much to everyone who was involved in this book AND all the people that have come together for this US edition over the last year!
