Glitter Boy: A heartfelt children's novel about the courage it can take to stay true to yourself

Product Information

The Boom Gun is so powerful that the Glitter Boy has to anchor itself to the ground to keep it from being thrown to the ground and backwards 30 feet. I read an awful lot of children’s poetry and am a big fan of poets like Dom Conlon, Sue Hardy-Dawson, Julie Ann Douglas, Neal Zetter, Joshua Seigal, Brian Moses, Liz Brownlee, Debra Bertulis, Matt Goodfellow, Kate Wakeling, Alex Wharton…the list goes on! I also hope they experience the pure joy of belting out a Mariah Carey tune at full volume and feeling that sense of release! Perfect for fans of: Me, My Dad and the End of the Rainbow by Benjamin Dean; The Secret Sunshine Project by Benjamin Dean; The Last Fire Fox by Lee Newbery; and Jamie by L.

As these are seen as girly things another boy in class starts to bully him telling him he is gay as if it’s a bad thing to be. I'm sure when Quebec comes out they'll rectify this oversight, but then again I thought that there would again be a reason to fear Tattooed men when Splynn came out. Featuring a vibrant rainbow design, and our super-sized Q logo, you won't find a more stylish way to make a statement. A lot of hope was placed on the Boom gun because it was also meant for the next generation of tank-busting aircraft, for the USA's next generation main battle tank and the US Navy's next medium calibur deck gun.Glitter Boy is about allowing yourself to shine and sparkle and never giving up, even when the darkness seems to be drawing around you" (Author Ian Eagleton). Buthe's being bullied by a boy at school, and as the secrets buildup, James begins to lose his spark.

This would begin conversations about empathy, bullying, being yourself and about what being LGBTQ+ means. about LGBT+ history, acceptance (and non) in the today, about being yourself and loving people for exactly who they are. It’s not something to fear or which will corrupt young people, it’s about learning to simply dance and spread more love than hate.Glitter Boy tells the story of Jamie, a Year 6 pupil who has a passion for Mariah Carey, dancing and singing in the school choir.

This is former teacher Ian Eagleton’s debut novel (his picture book, Nen and the Lonely Fisherman, won the 2022 Polari Prize). Should you be unfortunate to be fighting the GB without the aid of cover you have to get a little extreme. Similarly to these books it will help foster empathy and acceptance towards those who are different. The bullying touches the parts of James that he is exploring but of which he is also most fearful' (Sylvia, former Children's Social Work Director, Letterbox Library reviewer).

For kids who are queer or questioning, it's boldly affirming; for those who aren't, as well as parents and teachers, it gently offers insight into other people's experiences. Respected, because Glitter Boy armor was the weapon of the greatest heroes in North America throughout the Two Hundred Years Dark Age. Over a five-month period, he photographed a handful of his friends in front of a pink backdrop on the patio of his dorm room at The New School in New York City. In this powerful story, we follow James, a warm and sweet kid who's proud of his interests, even if they vary from the toxic masculinity around him.
