Review by Horn Book Review

Lyrics to the 1986 ballad performed by Cindy Lauper come to life with appropriately colorful illustrations portraying a diverse cast of children and adults. Rainbows and same-sex embraces convey LGBTQ pride, fitting with the song's history in the gay rights movement. However, true fans looking to sing along may be annoyed by an extra line inserted into the first chorus and one removed from the second. (c) Copyright 2019.
