A Farm Boy Meets His Prince In A Beautiful New Children's Book
The Huffington Post ^ | March 26, 2017 | James Michael Nichols

Posted on 03/29/2017 5:41:56 AM PDT by blackbetty59

A powerful new children’s book is telling the story of a farm boy and prince who meet, build a friendship and eventually fall in love in the face of adversity.

Promised Land, by authors Adam Reynolds and Chaz Harris, borrows elements from classic fairy tales and utilizes them in a queer and empowering framework. Not only is the book presenting a same-sex love story in an accessible and understandable way, but it also bucks the “damsel in distress” narrative by having the central female character, a queen, be the one to save herself.

faggots will be the death of this country with sin.

Also, it goes onto say that the queen gets herself out of trouble.

Good, then ONLY WOMEN can go fight China when the time comes.

Also,, bring every man home and send a feminist in his place, trained or not. Just give em a gun.

Two countries are forming in the West. Choose one, and prepare for battle. Inevitable.

Didn’t that actually happen some years ago out in Wyoming? Except I recall a three-some. One of the fairies named Matthew was on the fence about it.

Lol - when my kids were young and we went to the library, they would pull books out and every book that was full of garbage, occult, etc., when I slipped it back onto the shelf I would accidentally push it to far back and it would fall off and land between the wall and the shelf. Nobody would be able to take the book out - I still feel badly about it to this day. NOT.

And if you can't get them out the door because of the security sticker in it, give them a new home in the "How to rewire your house" section of the library or some other obscure area.

We keep waiting for that reckoning . . . and waiting . . . and waiting. Meanwhile, people just keep taking it.

I cannot imagine why any decent person would expose their children to the far left’s agenda. My guess is that decent people would not do it.
