Synopsis

It's likely that you have already witnessed homophobia. The hatred and prejudice directed at people within the LGBTQIA+ community is hard to miss. Learn how to spot homophobic language and behavior. Become an ally. It is a powerful thing to do in the face of hate.

Level 3 readers are aimed at children who are reading by themselves and can grasp new concepts. Key words and captions help readers understand new vocabulary and more challenging sentence structure.

This project has been made possible in part by the Government of Canada.
