Sinopsis

When You Look Out the Window tells the story of Phyllis Lyon and Del Martin, one of San Francisco's most well-known and politically active lesbian couples.

Describing the view from Phyllis and Del's window, this book shows how one couple's activism transformed their community - and had ripple effects throughout the world. This is a unique way to introduce children to untold stories in history while also being a clever tribute to two notable women.

Includes a Reading Guide that provides helpful historical context, and a Note to Parents, Caregivers, and Educators about the importance of teaching LGBTQ history and culture to children.

From the Reading Guide:

Phyllis Lyon and Del Martin were one of San Francisco amp rsquo s most well-known and politically active lesbian couples. They met in 95 , and moved in together on February 4, 953 (Valentine amp rsquo s Day!). The house they shared for 53 years-and where Phyllis still lives today-located at the top of Castro Street, has a big picture window that overlooks the entire city. Each of the landmarks described in the story is part of the view from their house. Phyllis and Del left their mark on each of these sites, and they are described below.
