The LGBT group Educate & Celebrate has released several children's books called "Introducing Teddy" and "Are You a Girl or a Boy" in the UK to help children figure out their sexuality.
"Introducing Teddy" features a "transgender teddy bear," while "Are You a Girl or a Boy" is all about a non-binary child. They also have "Gracefully Grayson," which is a story about a boy who is "a girl on the inside, stuck in the wrong gender's body."
Educate & Celebrate receives funding from the Department of Education, and their books are now being placed in nursuries and primary schools across the UK.
The evangelical community isn't happy about it. Chris McGovern, Chairman of the Campaign for Real Education, told Charisma News that the books, which promote the transgender agenda, is actually "damaging and cruel" to children.
"They are inflicting adult neuroses about gender on to children who are not interested in gender. Children do not have issues about their gender in 99.9 percent of cases," said McGovern. "Adults need to stop thinking children see the world the way they do. They do not. They may play at being a goblin one day, a dragon the next."
Meanwhile, Ciaran Kelly from The Christian Institute said that transgender activists should just leave children alone, because their efforts are only making them more confused. "Educate & Celebrate is using children as unwitting tools in its attempts to normalize this dangerous ideology," said Kelly. "Let children be children. They need protecting from activists intent on co-opting them into their transgender agenda.
"Children should be encouraged to take joy in how God has made them, not persuaded to believe that they are somehow 'trapped in the wrong body," Kelly added.
There are now a number of transgender children's books available on the market, according to Huffington Post. Some of the more popular ones is "I Am Jazz," which is a picture book based on the real-life experience of TLC reality star and transgender child Jazz Jennings, who "always knew she had a girl's brain in a boy's body."
"George," on the other hand, is about the challenge faced by George when she wanted to try out for the role of Charlotte in the school play. The teacher told George she couldn't "because you're a boy," so she and her friends "come up with a plan so she can finally be who she wants to be."
