AMAZING BOOK!!
This is so much more than I expected. My daughter recently came out to me and her dad and I thought getting this for her bday would be a nice way of showing our support. When I opened it, and started reading it, it brought tears to my eyes. I think it's so amazing someone took the time to sit down and put their heart in a book like this and I wish my baby was turning 13 today so I could give it to her right now! WONDERFUL BUY!!! I wish I could give it a million stars!
Love it so much!!!
My daughter loved this! This is a must buy for every parent of a child within the LGBTQ+ community!
Awesome learning tool!
Great book. Super resource for my students.
Must have amazing book🌈❤️
Great Book, I love the positive affirmations helping you find your inner rainbow 🌈
Life changing book. Buy it!
This book should belong to everyone in this world. It is beautifully illustrated and has beautiful content. I bought it for my friend who has just come out to his parents and it made him cry. He was so overwhelmed at how much it has helped me feel about the trauma of telling his parents (they were very accepting). Thank you Dom for being you. I will be buying two more. One for me and one for my teenage stepdaughter who loves everything about Dom and his artwork and message expressed in such an colourful and fun way.
Perfect Self Confidence Booster
I love this journal so much. Gave me a lot of insight into the LGBTQ+ community but also a chance to stress relieve and help with self confidence. Dom who created this fantastic bit of magic is also a magic rainbow unicorn merperson. Its great for anyone who maybe hard up on themselves and needs a little confidence boost and also for those who want to know more about the LGBTQ+ community. I have used it as a tool to educate people who we previously very ignorant to everything.
Hilarious, compassionate, inclusive book
This is a gorgeously illustrated book full of love, positivity and inclusivity. The message all the way through is to love and accept yourself, and there are some brilliantly funny illustrations and activities throughout. Dom&Ink is a genius and I’m a huge fan of his work. I’ve bought multiple copies of this to give as presents. This book is going to be a HUGE hit this summer, I’m convinced!
Wish I’d had this when I was little!
I bought this for my niece & I can’t wait to give it to her, it’s flipping gorgeous! Lovely illustrations & fantastic messages for anyone who’s questioning their sexuality or gender. I’d say it’s aimed at teenagers but really it would suit a really wide age range.
Informative, inspirational and interactive 💖
This journal is jam packed with activities to help figure out who you are and who you want to be. Lots of humour and lots of sass (obvs) but Dom also discusses some really important and powerful issues. This would make the perfect gift for anyone in your life, young or old, or even as an indulgent treat for yourself! With lots of interactive pages, doodles and prompts, it also acts as a great tool for those of feeling a little stressed or anxious day to day.
Fab! Fun AND informative x
A fun book that is equally informative and inspirational. I was initially attracted to the fabulous artwork, but this book is great for any teen or adult with questions. Jam packed full of colourful illustrations (and space for your own notes!) this book is great value for money. The authors voice really shines through and acts as a friendly guide throughout the book.
