OAKLAND, Calif., Dec. 2, 2025 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Abrams Appleseed, a children's book imprint of Abrams has partnered with Little Feminist Press, the award-winning independent children's publisher, to co-publish We Celebrate, a new series of photographic board books to uplift identity, community, and belonging through celebrations. How We Love (on sale December 2, 2025) and Juneteenth (on sale April 7, 2026) will be the first titles in this series, created to bring affirming, real-life representation to the youngest readers.

Little Feminist Press is best known for We Are Little Feminists: Families, the first-ever board book to win an American Library Association medal (2021 Stonewall). Of its eleven titles in print, Little Feminist Press has also won recognition from Kirkus Reviews (Best Books of 2022) and Good Housekeeping (Best Kids' Books of 2023). It has built an international reputation for collaborating with photographers worldwide to reflect the rich diversity of real families.

How We Love has already earned early critical acclaim, including a coveted Kirkus Star—a distinction seldom awarded to board books. It was also named to the Kirkus Best Books of 2025 list and selected for the Kirkus Holiday Gift Guide.

How We Love (December 2, 2025) explores the many ways families and friends express love—even when it's hard. Photographs of children's daily lives highlight everyday acts of care—sharing with siblings, working through conflict, showing up during big feelings, and even setting boundaries. With stellar photography of real families, readers will see love in action as kids, their siblings, and their loving adult caretakers share, listen, hug, dance, show kindness, demonstrate bravery, and step in to help their families and communities. The book also includes family discussion questions and a note for grownups on how to use this book with young children.

Juneteenth (April 7, 2026) celebrates the newest U.S. holiday through joyful, community-centered storytelling. Powerful photography invites young readers to experience what freedom means to families across the country—through sights, sounds, meals, and more. This engaging board book honors Juneteenth and its powerful history. Bursting with beautiful, community-sourced photographs, this board book features powerful images of Black joy, allyship from all demographics, and the many ways people can celebrate this important American holiday.

"We're thrilled to partner with Abrams Appleseed," said Brittany Murlas, the founder and publisher of Little Feminist Press. "No other children's publisher demonstrates the same commitment to quality, and this collaboration helps us reach a wider audience—at a time when affirming love and freedom has never been more important."

Both titles will be distributed by Abrams and available through major retailers and independent booksellers.
