My main area of research interest concerns books that depict LGBTQIA+ characters.

Here are some great resources to help you find quality LGBTQIA+ children’s and young adult literature:

• Common Sense Media
• I’m Here, I’m Queer, What the Hell Do I Read?
• Lambda Literary
• LGBTQ Reads
• Medal on My Mind
• Mombian
• The Rainbow Book List
• Social Justice Books
• The Stonewall Book Award
• YA Pride

And here is a list of queer-friendly independent publishers:

• Alyson Wonderland (ceased?)
• Bedazzled Ink
• Flamingo Rampant
• Harmony Ink Press
• Reflection Press
• Second Story Press
• Two Lives Books (ceased?)
