A library manager in southern Georgia was fired after including a book featuring a transgender child in a summer reading display. The display was part of a statewide program called "color our world," designed to celebrate diversity. Created with children's contributions, the display emphasized media with raindbow themes. A young girl suggested the book "When Aidan Became a Brother" by Kyle Lukoff, which features a transgender boy. Despite Moore being unfamiliar with the book, she approved its inclusion, focusing on the positive representation of families and siblings.
"There were books, DVDs, games, and each and every one of them had at least a hint of a rainbow on it. Because all the kids went to find rainbows."
"All I saw was Aidan becoming a big brother. I saw a family with a kid wearing a rainbow sweater and the mom pregnant."
