'I am honored to recommend this book to ALL parents. . . . [I]t relates to all families, tolerance, and love.' --Greg Berlanti, writer, producer, director'Raw and unfiltered. . . Lowe breaks new ground, highlighting the dire need for further exploration. 5 Hearts.' --Foreword Reviews'[A] powerful eye-opener.' --Amanda Hopping-Winn, chief program officer, Family Equality Council 'Raw, personal, and uncensored, this must-read book gives us insight as to what it’s like to be raised by same-gender parents and how that can impact one’s life.' --Eric Rosswood, author of The Ultimate Guide for Gay Dads and Journey to Same-Sex ParenthoodIn recent years, the world has been saturated by endless blogs, articles, and books devoted to the subject of LGBTQ+ parenting. On the flip side, finding stories written by the children of LGBTQ+ parents is akin to searching for a needle in a haystack. Now that the world is more accepting than ever of non-traditional families, it’s time to create a literary space for this not-so-unique, shared, but completely individual experience.In Raised by Unicorns: Stories from People with LGBTQ+ Parents, Frank Lowe has carefully edited an anthology that reflects on the upbringing of children in many different forms of LGBTQ+ families. From Baby Boomers to Generation Z, it features diverse stories that express the distinctiveness of this shared journey and of each particular family. It’s visceral, raw, and not always pretty, but love is always the common thread.Lowe candidly reveals true accounts of this particular niche of humanity, while simultaneously creating a moving snapshot of the world in which we live. Raised by Unicorns guides the reader through an empathetic journey that is nothing short of compelling and poignant. We’ve all heard the phrase 'raised by wolves.' Now we have a window into the complex world of being Raised by Unicorns.
