Read Because: hardback from a little free library
Review: I'm the opposite of the target audience, but I remember when everyone was talking about this and so I grabbed it when it showed up at my local little free library. I don't like it! I'm sure it's cathartic, I'm equally sure that I don't get an opinion, but "why doesn't this small human comply I take away their bodily autonomy" doesn't amuse me.
