Grandad’s Pride

We stand by our author and illustrator Harry Woodgate and their book Grandad’s Pride.

We believe it is a faithful representation of Pride Celebrations and Pride Parades around the country enjoyed by many families. We discussed the images of the Pride parade during our stringent and robust editorial process and decided collectively that we should show a true representation of what a Pride march looks like and what the many children who attend these events see.

We consider accusations of “hidden messages” to be baseless, deeply offensive and homophobic.
