Queer Ducks (and Other Animals): The Natural World of Animal Sexuality
by Eliot Schrefer & Jules Zuckerberg (illustrator)
***2023 Michael L. Printz Honor Book (for Young Adult Literature)***
This is an engaging and accessible non-fiction book about queer behaviours observed throughout the animal kingdom. Structured with chapters on different animal species and Q&A with scientists, it highlights how biases impact our understanding of the world, and that the idea that same-sex sexual behaviour is “unnatural” needs to be put to rest.
