Welcome readers! today I’m featuring Uncle Bobby’s Wedding in honor of PRIDE month. Check out this adorable book that celebrates love and family.
Book Description
When Chloe’s favorite uncle announces that he’s getting married, everyone is excited. Everyone except Chloe, that is. What if Uncle Bobby no longer has time for picnics, swimming, or flying kites? Chloe just wants to keep having fun with her favorite uncle, but she’s afraid everything is going to change. Can Uncle Bobby and his boyfriend Jamie show Chloe that when it comes to family, the more the merrier? In this inspiring, love-filled story, Chloe learns that she’s not losing an uncle . . . she’s gaining one.
Originally published in 2008 and re-imagined in 2020, Uncle Bobby’s Wedding is one of the most important picture books to center the lives of LGBTQ families. In 2025, Uncle Bobby’s Wedding was featured prominently in the controversial and often criticized Supreme Court of the United States case, Mahmoud v. Taylor, where this charming story about a girl and her favorite doting uncle made huge waves.
Produced in partnership with GLAAD, Uncle Bobby’s Wedding is a loving celebration of a caring and thoughtful family who help a child realize that change can be good.
