Too much from the adults and not enough from the kids.

Shame...it could have been utterly charming.

Tall Tales with True Queens explores the event series "Drag Queen Story Hour," in which drag queens read stories to kids in bookstores, libraries, and beyond. Lately, controversy surrounding the program has made headlines and drawn international media coverage. Some herald it as a delight and an inspiration, while others have called it a disgrace. The story unfolds through the eyes of the children who attend the event series, as well as the vanguard adults who create, support, and perform in it.
