Book Synopsis

NPR''s All Things Considered, calls Queer Ducks teenager-friendly. It''s a Printz Honor young adult book filled with comics and humor and accessible science, and it''s filled with research on the diversity of sexual behavior in the animal world.

This groundbreaking illustrated YA nonfiction title from two-time National Book Award finalist and New York Times bestselling author Eliot Schrefer is a well-researched and teen-friendly exploration of the gamut of queer behaviors observed in animals.

A quiet revolution has been underway in recent years, with study after study revealing substantial same-sex sexual behavior in animals. Join celebrated author Eliot Schrefer on an exploration of queer behavior in the animal world?from albatrosses to bonobos to clownfish to doodlebugs.

In sharp and witty prose?aided by humorous comics from artist Jules Zuckerberg?Schrefer uses science, history, anthropology, and sociology to illustrate the diversity of sexual behavior in the animal world. Interviews with researchers in the field offer additional insights for readers and aspiring scientists.

Queer behavior in animals is as diverse and complex?and as natural?as it is in our own species. It doesn?t set us apart from animals?it bonds us even closer to our animal selves.
