Many teachers, parents, and caregivers use children’s books as a starting point to teach young people about particular subjects, which is why it is so problematic to have either stereotyped bisexuals in children’s literature, or a total absence of bi characters (Epstein 112). It is this absence that can teach us so much. Is it because it is less acceptable than heterosexuality and homosexuality? Is that why we don’t see it? Is it because it is too difficult to convey bisexuality in pictures? Are authors worried the text will become too didactic or expository if they need to clarify a bi character or two? I wondered this myself. I can read Mommy, Mama, and Me and point out the two bi moms, and my kid will accept my “translation”. There is nowhere in the text that refutes the fact that the moms could both be bi (oh, but wouldn’t it be fun to have a kids’ book where a mom proclaims that she is a gold star lesbian?). “Some authors and publishers appear to see no need to refer to the fact that bisexuals can and do parent, and that they do so from within a variety of relationships or familial arrangements” (Epstein 119). But again, why? Where are the bi authors or bi publishers who see the dearth and aim to fill it with quality books and portrayals?
