Q&A with Lil Miss Hot Mess
Q: What inspired you to write this story?
A: I wanted to share a different message than many LGBTQ-related kids books: there’s no bullying, no coming out, just fabulousness. And that joy and positivity encourages kids to embrace their unique selves. When they read this book, I hope they think don’t just want to dance in someone else’s shoes – but to design their own from their wildest imaginations.
Q: Why did you decide to put the story to such a popular kid's song?
A: Parody has always been a part of drag. We rewrite songs, take things from mainstream culture, and give them twists to help us think about the world in new ways. And that repetition, with just a touch of difference, is a great learning tool.
Q: What do you hope kids learn from this book?
A: Drag is about finding something in yourself— bold, fearless, and completely original—and turning that into reality. I hope these books inspire kids to look to their inner selves and not be afraid to let them shine on the outside as well.
