"With effusively inclusive rhyming language...this affectionate volume imbues a classic 'be yourself' narrative with gender-expansive affirmations, positioning guardians as partners in their children's journey to 'find what's authentic & true.'" —Publishers Weekly

Quiet and loud, soft and strong. You being you, there's no way to be wrong...

Every day, parents come home from the hospital with a brand-new human being. What if we made vows to our babies to love them no matter what? What if the world didn't rush in to judge our little ones and instead made them feel truly seen and supported.

With bright, vibrant illustrations and exuberant rhythm and rhyme, Whoever You Are is the ultimate vow every baby will love to grow up hearing.

      With effusively inclusive rhyming language, Wai Lin crafts a promise of unconditional love from guardian to child in this board book. The narrator outlines many possibilities for their baby: “Maybe you like blue,/ maybe you like pink./ Maybe you believe/ gender/ is something to rethink.” But whether they prefer dolls or trucks, or become an “engineer, activist, CEO,/ doctor, dancer, or a weirdo,” the text notes that what matters most is the child’s staying true to themself. Accompanied by Lopez’s slickly rendered, fantastical illustrations—the book opens with two giant hands cradling a brown-skinned baby against a celestial background, and shows children of varying skin tones and gender presentations as they ride a unicorn, swim as a mermaid, and slide on a rainbow—this affectionate volume imbues a classic “be yourself” narrative with gender-expansive affirmations, positioning guardians as partners in their children’s journey to “find what’s authentic & true.” Ages up to 4.
