Books my son has loved:

  • "That Rabbit Belongs to Emily Brown". Queen Gloriana the Third tries every trick in the book to get her hands on Emily Brown's rabbit Stanley, but Emily Brown isn't giving her best friend away, not even for all the toys in the world. This is my son's favorite book ever. Great story, both main characters are female. The text is just right - a few challenging words/phrases which are repeated often, the rest easily understood by 3-4 yr olds. Illustrations are funny and awesome.

  • "Falling for Rapunzel" - A fractured fairy tale (my favorite kind) in rhyme. The prince thinks Rapunzel needs his help and rides to her tower to rescue her, but she keeps mishearing his request to "let down her hair". Text is a bit challenging for 3-4 yr olds, and you might need to stop to explain the meanings of a few words, but my son loves the rhyme and LOLs a lot at the story. Nice illustrations too!

  • "Where the Wild Things Are" - a classic, I'm sure you are familiar with it. When we read this book, I make sure the wild things are often "she". :)

  • Several Dr. Seuss books, such as Green Eggs and Ham, and The Cat in the Hat. Some Dr. Seuss books are boring for my son, especially the ones with a LOT (just pages and pages) of nonsense words - entertaining for a bit but it's a chore to get through the book. We like the ones with a story. With Dr. Seuss, you need to be extra vigilant about gender of the characters, there are almost no female characters in his books. In our home when we read, I make the Cat in the Hat female :) all "she" where it says "he", and so on.

  • any "Dora the Explorer" book. Great for characters of color. I highly recommend Dora in general, it's perfect for 3 yr olds. My son's outgrowing her now that he's 4, though, it's a bit too simple for him.

  • recently we've added a bunch of nonfiction books about volcanoes, planets, dinosaurs, etc. When we read them there's always a discussion of stuff like "what's going to happen if we go to Pluto?" and so forth. Great time to inject diversity education: our astronauts are often disabled!

I'm not calling you fat. I'm saying this is your self image and this is a book you would benefit a great deal from.

If you want me to stop marginalizing you and explain why I think you're such a douchebag:
> Try using a f*ing car maybe. Or walking. Or taking public transportation. Biking in a city is dangerous

I own a car. I started the discussion by pointing this out. I've spent probably 100 hours on public transportation. Also, biking in a city is not inherently dangerous, that is, if there were no cars it would be super safe. Now, cars are safe around cars. Bikes are safe around bikes. We could yell at each other that one or the other doesn't belong in a city: "hey faggot, get a job and buy a car." or "fuck your hummer you Nazi I hope you die in a fire." But I like riding a bike and since it's a reasonable thing to do i'm not going to stop. You like driving your car. So now we can discuss the advantages and disadvantages to both and try to come up with the safest and most efficient compromise.

Explanation of why you're a douchebag continued:
> People who can't afford cars are obviously not very smart. If they were, they could get a job.

This really is unrelated to how bikes should be treated in cities, but it's worth noting that I used to live in Chicago and some people are, for all practical purposes, too poor to afford a car. Telling them to "get a job" is not helpful, but it is something a douchebag would do.
