K-3 "Gender-Nonconforming" Picture Books in Public School Libraries

Children are being indoctrinated in "queer theory" starting in kindergarten. We are going to examine SOME books that promote gender-nonconforming ideas such as boys wearing dresses, girls using the boys restroom and vice versa, and parents and teachers supporting these ideas. Children must be indoctrinated in these basic "gender theory" concepts before they can go on to be indoctrinated in transgenderism, gender fluidity, identifying as gay/lesbian/pansexual, etc.

So let's look at the first steps of this indoctrination, which is "gender-nonconformity".

This book is found in the online elementary school library catalogs of the following school districts:


  • Richardson ISD

  • Plano ISD

  • Mesquite ISD

  • Denton ISD

  • Dallas ISD

  • Irving ISD

  • Fort Worth ISD

  • Leander ISD

  • Houston ISD

It may be found in other school districts as well. Here are scanned pages from this book, Jacob's New Dress:







 

The author of Jacob's New Dress also wrote another book about Jacob and added his friend Sophie as a main character. This book is titled Jacob's Room to Choose. In this book, neither child identifies as "the gender they were assigned at birth". This causes a problem when they have to decide which restroom to use. In the end, the teacher and children all decide that any child can use whatever restroom they are comfortable using. If you are the parent of a daughter, do you want boys in the girls restrooms at your daughter's school?


This book is found in the following school districts according to their own school online elementary school library catalogs, and it may be found in others as well:

If parents want their son to wear dresses or their daughter to use the boys restroom or to call their daughter a boy, that is their business. Children should not be reading books that do conflict with their parents values without their parents' knowledge and consent. Furthermore, teachers can (and do) use these books as an opportunity to expand the discussion and teach kids more about gender-nonconforming people.

Here is an example of a lesson plan for Julian is a Mermaid that can be found online:
