Facts and fabulousness make for non-boring nonfiction.

Feminism. Patriarchy. Beauty. Bad puns. An author and her unruly brainchild (Francesca, the fabulous feminist flamingo) come together for a picture book collab that will leave you feeling so empowered that you might just flip a dump truck.

Francesca the Fabulous Feminist Flamingo takes us on an extraordinary journey into the history and ideology behind the thing everyone wants and no one understands: BEAUTY.

Learn about blackened teeth in Japan. Force-feeding in the Sahara. Victorian Era tuberculosis chic. Educational and entertaining, this PG-13 picture book will take you around the world and across the ages. Francesca is a wide-lens view of the flippant, ever-changing nature of beauty standards and our bad habit of trying to meet them.
