"I'm honored to dress women of all sizes and genders for the runway and the red carpet. I am so excited for Rennie's forthcoming picture book that reminds children--and all of us--how important it is to accept and respect ALL bodies." -- Designer Christian Siriano "The most important thing we can do for a child's self-esteem is to teach them that their bodies (just like their skin color, ability, or gender) are perfect just the way they are. But this specific lesson is often left out of early childhood books and conversations. With parents reaching for books like B is for Bellies, we can hope that more children will grow up never having to undo the negative thoughts they have about their bodies and instead will grow up celebrating themselves as worthy, capable, and uniquely wonderful." -- Whitney Way Thore, author, star of TLC's My Big Fat Fabulous Life, and founder of the No Body Shame movement "I know this is a book meant for children, but it really resonated with me, a 44-year-old woman! Maybe it's quarantine, maybe it's working in Hollywood where how you look is a big part of your job, or maybe it's just a lifetime of subconsciously comparing ourselves to others . whatever it is, I had tears in my eyes reading this. This book needs to be on every child's bookshelf.

It breaks my heart to see what happens to our tweens and to think of them as the little girls who were once so carefree and unaware of their looks. I wish we could bottle up that confidence and carry it with us as we age. This book is the reminder that we all need." -- Andrea Barber, author, Fuller House star, and mental health activist " . this is above all an early introduction to body inclusivity. Simple and powerful." -- Kirkus Reviews A must-purchase in the ever-expanding genre of picture books that normalize the multitude of ways a body can be healthy and beautiful. -- School Library Journal (starred review).
