His Body Can

By Ady Meschke and Katie Crenshaw

"His body can scream, cheer, laugh, or cry. Feelings are good to express all the time.”

From the authors of the #1 bestselling children's book, Her Body Can, comes His Body Can, a book that empowers boys to define for themselves what it means to be a boy and shows them they can feel comfortable expressing exactly who they are. The aim of this book is to encourage all boys to be who they're meant to be and love themselves and their bodies without having to listen to gender-based expectations of how they should behave, dress, and play. This book highlights that boys are absolutely amazing and CAN DO incredible things—and that their worth is not measured by anything except how big they love themselves. Written for boys ages newborn to 8, His Body Can teaches that we can overcome ingrained generational beliefs about boys and rewrite the cultural narrative on what masculinity is.

The authors’ rhyming, sing-song poetry delivers affirming messages that are easy for young readers to understand and absorb, and the illustrator’s whimsical, modern drawings and vibrant colors bring boys to life on and off the page.
