Here I Am offers a timely antidote to confusing messages about gender and identity, ushering the young imagination into a sacramental understanding of reality.

Appealing to childlike wonder and joy, this book draws young readers deeper into the mystery of the Incarnation. Through engaging words and charming illustrations, children can begin to see their bodies as gifts that mirror the gift of Christ’s own body.
This book helps parents to:

• Combat confusing gender ideology.
• Lay a foundation for theology of the body for young children.
• Offer a positive and sacred view of the body.
• ?Explain that gender is rooted in the body, not in feelings, perceptions, or stereotypes.
• ?Help children understand his or her body as a good gift from God, not something to war against.

Why does this book come in two different versions?
Human personhood is expressed in two distinct modes: male and female. Having two separate versions for boys and girls shows, not just tells that being a boy or a girl is fundamentally about the body.

This book helps children understand from a young age that our gender & identity is rooted in our bodies, which are a part of who we are as children of God. A clarifying Catholic message in confusing times.
