These are the fairy tales that history forgot – or concealed. Tales in which gender is fluid and where queer stories can have a happy ending. From the humble sailor who finds his handsome prince to the transgender market girl who becomes queen, from Europe to Asia via the African savannah, LGBTQ+ folklore researcher Pete Jordi Wood has combed through generations of history and collected and adapted ten unforgettable stories featuring queer characters.

Tales From Beyond the Rainbow
By Pete Jordi Wood
Review by Lou

An eye-opening collection of LGBTQ+ fairytales for the older kids! I loved these stories of love and hope, and acceptance and equality. They talk about a variety of struggles queer people go through in day-to-day life with happy endings all around! Reading these stories made me feel so hopeful for the future generations.
