... that there is disagreement about whether Lots of Mommies, in which a girl is raised by four mothers, should be considered an LGBTQ picture book? Source: Crisp 2010: "Although it is not ambiguous for Horning, in actuality, it is the semiotics that establish the text as queer. [...] While it may be easy to see why Lots of Mommies has not been counted as an LGBTQ picture book..."; Peel 2015: "and Lots of Mommies, which I still don’t agree is about a lesbian family because there’s nothing explicit there that shows that any of them are lesbians. I mean they’re living in a commune, and they have interesting names. But you know there’s nothing that says that any of them are a couple."
Overall: Article is new enough, long enough and well sourced. Hook is cited and interesting. Since qpq is done and there's no copyvio, this one looks all set. BuySomeApples (talk) 07:16, 24 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Hi AryKun, thanks for this kind review. I've addressed all of the above points as requested. Regarding the "as of the 2010s" bit, unfortunately there's no more recent info here; Lots of Mommies had a burst of interest early last decade but hasn't been written about much in the '20s so far. Here's hoping there's more scholarship in the pipeline but this really covers all there's been lately. —Collintc 00:00, 24 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
