Cover of PRIDE: The story of harvey milk and the rainbow flag by rob sanders

PRIDE: The Story of Harvey Milk and the Rainbow Flag by Rob Sanders is a joyful picture book about courage, community, and belonging. Stories like this help kids learn empathy and respect. Removing them doesn’t protect children, it limits understanding.
