Nature is kinky, wild, and free

Queer Animals & Plants Coloring Book

by Kes Otter Lieffe (Author) and Anja Van Geert (Illustrator)

Lesbian gulls, intersex grizzly bears, gay orgies of manatees, trans clownfish, binary-smashing lichens, sex-changing willow trees, and asexual naked mole rats! Queerness is everywhere in the natural world. This coloring book celebrates the diversity of animals, plants, and fungi, and the way our beautiful queer communities exist far beyond the realms of human culture. Challenge society's cis-het norms with this entertaining and educational resource, created by trans woman and ecologist Kes Otter Lieffe, and richly illustrated by Anja Van Geert.
