Guinea Pigs Don't Wear Pants by Chris Paul Rainbows

Guinea Pigs Don't Wear Pants by Chris Paul Rainbows

Chris Paul Rainbows celebrates the launch of Guinea Pigs Don't Wear Pants, a children's picture book about self-expression and individuality. The book features playful rhymes and colorful illustrations of animals in humorous situations—from lipsticked llamas to tumbling giraffes—alongside a message that humans are free to express themselves however they choose.

At its heart, the book opens conversations about self-expression, gender, and being true to yourself. It resonates with families, educators, and librarians for its warmth, joy, and affirming message that who you are is beautiful and worthy of love.

Chris Paul (Rainbows) Farias is an award-winning creative strategist, storyteller, and online creator. They founded Unicorn Rebellion, a creative branding agency, and speak with students, educators, and organizations about creativity, identity, and happiness. Chris was recently awarded the King Charles III Coronation Medal for philanthropy and advocacy for the 2SLGBTQIA+ community. Guinea Pigs Don't Wear Pants is their debut picture book.

The book has been praised by Rosie O'Donnell, Margaret Cho, Alexandra Billings, Mae Martin, Fred Penner, and Sharon & Bram.
