Rob Sanders calls himself “a writer who teaches, Rob Sanders calls himself “a writer who teaches, and a teacher who writes.”

From Rob's interview with Publisher's Weekly:

How did the writing of Pride springboard you to your next books?

It started me off on a path of writing LGBTQ+ history books and other nonfiction books for children. Pride was supposed to come out in 2017, but it was delayed and came out in 2018. That turned out to be a great thing because 2018 was the 40th anniversary of the Pride flag.

"Pride: The Story of Harvey Milk and the Rainbow Flag " is a TRUE story of love, hope, equality, and pride and we are here for it!

In this deeply moving and empowering true story, young readers will trace the life of the Gay Pride Flag, from its beginnings in 1978 with social activist Harvey Milk and designer Gilbert Baker to its spanning of the globe and its role in today's world. Award-winning author Rob Sanders's stirring text, and acclaimed illustrator Steven Salerno's evocative images, combine to tell this remarkable - and undertold - story. A story of love, hope, equality, and pride.
