Book called ‘Jacob’s New Dress’ presented as anti-bullying text for 1st graders

The book replacing the transgender book is called Red: A Crayon’s Story. Sounds harmless and age appropriate, right?

Here’s the description from Amazon:

Red has a bright red label, but he is, in fact, blue. His teacher tries to help him be red (let’s draw strawberries!), his mother tries to help him be red by sending him out on a playdate with a yellow classmate (go draw a nice orange!), and the scissors try to help him be red by snipping his label so that he has room to breathe. But Red is miserable. He just can’t be red, no matter how hard he tries! Finally, a brand-new friend offers a brand-new perspective, and Red discovers what readers have known all along. He’s blue! This funny, heartwarming, colorful picture book about finding the courage to be true to your inner self can be read on multiple levels, and it offers something for everyone.

Funny enough, the “frequently bought together” suggestion at Amazon pairs this book with, you guessed it, Jacob’s New Dress. Imagine that?
