Queer Animals and Plants Coloring Book
Queerness is everywhere in the natural world.
Lesbian gulls, intersex grizzly bears, gay orgies of manatees, trans clownfish, binary-smashing lichens, sex-changing willow trees, and asexual naked mole rats!
So many of us grew up with wildlife programs and school biology classes that showed only monogamous, heterosexual pairings with the goal of making little baby animals. This colouring book celebrates the diversity of animals, plants, and fungi, and the way our beautiful queer communities exist far beyond the realms of human culture.
Bring your brightest colours to learn about and befriend some of the most colourful characters in nature and challenge society's cis-het norms. This entertaining and educational resource, created by trans woman and ecologist Kes Otter Lieffe, and richly illustrated by Anja Van Geert, builds on the success of their popular Queer Animals Coloring Zine to liberate our understanding of ourselves and the natural world we belong to.

About the Author
Kes Otter Lieffe is a working class, chronically ill, femme, trans woman. She is an author, facilitator and community organiser currently based in Berlin. Kes is the author of a trilogy of trans speculative fiction novels and she writes articles about class, gender, and queerness. A grassroots community organiser for over two decades, her work focuses particularly on the intersection of gender, queerness, and environmental struggles and creating radical alternatives to the trash-fire of capitalism.
After completing a PhD in Plant Ecology, Anja Van Geert has been part of many ecological projects and adventures including growing herbs at an urban farm in their home town of Brussels. They currently live in Brighton, UK organizing queer tea ceremonies and herb meditations. Anja is a breathwork facilitator by trade and is starting out on a new artistic journey. Anja drew the images for Queer Animals and Plants while curled up with their cat Moisey, with Buffy the Vampire Slayer in the background. Read more at pinprimrose.co.uk.
