★ “This celebration of Stonewall is a welcome addition to the slender shelf of LGBTQ books for younger readers.”

— Booklist, Starred Review

​

"A watershed picture bool . . . its unusual narrative perspective gives a strong sense of place and community. A beautiful . . .tribute." —Kirkus

​

“It’s a moving ode to a cherished place, the brave people who stood for justice, and the victories that continue to lead to change.”

—Publishers Weekly

 

​

“Rob Sanders . . . chooses an ingenious perspective to tell the Stonewall story: the double buildings, acting together as plural narrator, allows for the inviting, inclusive use of “our” and “we,” while their enduring existence becomes an emphatic statement about permanence. Artist Jamey Christoph . . . mirrors Sanders’s description of the Village as “a place . . . where being different was welcomed and accepted” by presenting diversity across every page, his smallest details (like a trampled copy of New York City Gay Scene Guide) enhance accuracy.”
