Storybooks on gang crime and drag queens

Alongside the latest children's book – "How to be a Drag Queen" – there is a new type of children's publication aimed at helping young kids cope with their traumas with regard to gang-related crime.

The storybook designed for children aged between 3 to 6 to give them an idea of how to become a drag queen will be published in Sweden in November.

The book tells the story of Liam, who „is like any other boy” and „goes to school, plays with his friends and dreams of becoming … a drag queen!”. And when his parents are unable to advise him on how to become one, Liam turns to the „drag queens in the library” for help.

„How to be a drag queen?” is a fictional guide for all children interested in drag. Preschoolers can follow Liam as he learns step by step the basics of being a drag queen, including how a boy can dress properly as a woman or apply makeup.

Each step is clearly described with text and pictures so that it is easy to follow, allowing the young boy to try out what it’s like to be a drag queen at home,” writes the Swedish Samnytt news portal.

The author of the book is 28-year-old Remy Livang (his real name is Remy Joel Cindy Olsson), who claims to be „non-binary” and who also owns Cookies n Dragons, a publishing house whose mascot is a rainbow-coloured dragon named Greg.

The book has caused a huge outcry, with many expressing their disapproval on social media. Some wrote: „The paedophile mafia continues its hunt. It’s time we put these as*holes behind bars.” Others said that the situation is getting sicker and sicker, while another online user pointed out that while the LGBTQ lobby claims that they don’t want to influence children, they are doing everything they can to steer the little ones towards their own „destructive lifestyles”.

As V4NA has consistently reported, there is a growing number of children’s books that promote gender and trans ideology, even among preschoolers. This includes events like story hours where trans individuals read „tales” to children.

For Swedish kids, however, there is a new type of book in the pipeline, one geared to prepare them for a new Sweden where gang wars are common,

– Samnytt writes.

The Swedish Civil Contingencies Agency (MSB) is working with Bris (Barnens rätt i samhället, or „children’s rights in society”), one of Sweden’s largest children’s rights organisations, on a publication for children focusing on the fact that violence and gang crime are affecting younger and younger people.

As a growing number of kids are being recruited into gangs where they tend to commit serious crimes, including even murders, Bris and MSB felt the need to prepare children for any potential life situation.

„We have found that many children are worried about gang violence and wonder how it might affect them or the people they know,” project leader Anna Toss explained, adding that this justifies the initiative to mentally prepare children for this situation in today’s Swedish society.

Overall, it is about „helping children to be better prepared for a crisis”.

The police, the National Board of Health and Welfare and the City of Stockholm are all involved in the project, and the publication will be distributed to all children of literacy age.
