4 stars A very cute, short-and-sweet book about a baby who makes her own choices. This is a great way to incorporate feminism into young children’s lives. The pictures are hilarious and the things Feminist Baby likes are very relatable (liking pink and blue, liking dolls and cars, liking to make noise). A wonderful book…

2 stars I’ve come to the conclusion this series just isn’t for me. When the Webtoon was getting a lot of hype, I gave it a try. Even a few episodes in, I just couldn’t get into the story. I was hoping it was just the episodic fashion and this would be alleviated in book…
