**The Little Book of Pride*

**Lewis Laney**

This little tome is a neat pocket-sized hardback, which gives an overview of Pride. Split into four chronological parts – *Before Pride*, *First Pride*, *Prise Rises* and *Keeping Pride Alive – w*ith a handy appendix at the end.

Laney is careful to make sure that all communities across our LGBTQ+ QTIPoC are represented and given equal voice and credit and there is a far-reaching synopsis of both Queer history and the rites of Pride & LGBTQ+ rights across the world. With profiles of key protagonists, quotes and feel good messaging, *The Little Book of Pride* proves that size definitely doesn’t matter by squeezing everything you need to know about Pride into 144 pages.

There is also a beautiful glittery fore-edge foil finish forming a rainbow when the book is closed, superb attention to camp detail and the book is filled with colourful, fun illustrations. Bringing a smile is what this little book is all about, and making you feel proud at what our community is capable of when it reaches for the stars.

A great gift for anyone missing Pride and its infinite, affirming variety this year.

**Out now, £7.99**
