Description
Small Town Pride by Phil Stamper is a poignant coming-of-age novel about finding your place and using your voice. In this contemporary middle grade debut, Jake navigates being the first openly gay kid at his school in a small town where not everyone is accepting. When Jake's family shows their support for the LGBTQ+ community with a large pride flag, it sparks controversy and complaints from some residents. Despite this, Jake believes that Barton Springs should hold a pride festival to celebrate diversity and inclusivity. However, getting approval from the town council proves challenging, especially when faced with opposition from the mayor's son. As Jake and his friends work to bring Pride to their town, they must also navigate personal relationships and unexpected alliances. This heartwarming story explores themes of self-acceptance, activism, and the power of community.
