We know you'll love the fabulous selection of books you can choose from in our Build-Your-Own boxes that feature transgender, nonbinary, and gender diverse characters! You'll choose the number of books for your box, and following your purchase, you'll immediately receive a link in your confirmation email to the Build-Your-Own Box bookstore to select which books you want to fill your box. The books in the Build-Your-Own-Box bookstore are favorites that have been in past OurShelves book boxes. Buy multiple copies of your favorite books to be your go-to act-of-resistance gifts, and/or choose a bundle of books to fill any gaps in your collection! Order by March 28.

Your purchase of these books supports the books and creators who are the target of unprecedented book bans and other harmful policies targeting transgender, nonbinary, and gender diverse kids and grown-ups during this time.

Any questions?  Please contact us at support@OurShelves.com.

Prefer to let OurShelves do the choosing for you? Order our expert-curated Transgender & Nonbinary Book Boxes here, and we’ll send you some of our favorite books from previous OurShelves boxes!

Here's some more information on our Build-Your-Own boxes:

  • The Build-Your-Own bookstore features books that uplift transgender, nonbinary, and gender diverse characters.
  • Affirm your values of equity, inclusion, diversity, social justice, love, and yes, fun and joy, while sharing high-quality children's books with the special children in your world.
  • Our Curation Team members who review our book selections share expertise from librarianship, teaching, early childhood development, psychology, racial and other identity bias, and parenting. All Curation Team members -- and their children -- have the lived experience of being under-represented in children's books.
  • Feel pride knowing you're exercising your consumer power to be counted in support of these LGBTQ+ children's books. OurShelves advocates for the many LGBTQ+ and other diverse books under attack during this time of unprecedented book bans. We also advocate for the many more LGBTQ+ and other diverse books still needed. Together, we're proving to publishers the currently underestimated audience for these books!
  • Free shipping within the US.

Who will love these books?

These beautiful books are mindfully and lovingly chosen by our expert Curation Team for children ages 2-5 (Rainbow) or 5-8 (Treehouse) years old.

When will my box book be delivered?

Our Transgender & Nonbinary Book Boxes will ship the week of April 14th.

Why does the Build-Your-Own Transgender & Nonbinary Book Box cost more than the standard expert-curated version?

The Build-Your-Own boxes cost more because we incur additional costs when packing unique book boxes that deviate from our standard boxes. The 3-book and 5-book Build-Your-Own Pride boxes cost $5 more than the standard expert-curated boxes. The 10-book Build-Your-Own boxes cost $10 more than the standard expert-curated boxes. 

Who pays for shipping?

OurShelves is thrilled to offer FREE SHIPPING within the U.S.! Please email us at support@OurShelves.com if you'd like your box shipped to Canada or the UK.

What if I have feedback to share?

Yes, please. We always welcome your feedback here.

Reviews

OurShelves is a quarterly diverse book box for children.

We curate high-quality children’s books that feature racially and ethnically diverse, LGBTQ+, disabled, feminist, and other characters and families currently under-represented in kids’ books.

We advocate for the many more diverse books still needed, in part by proving the significant audience for such books through our growing membership.
