Summary:	"This text reports findings of a qualitative study intended to disrupt notions of heteronormativity amongst pre-service elementary teachers by engaging them in multimodal writing and text production around issues facing LGBTQIA+ youth. Through analysis of picture books, infographics, and multimodal texts produced by teacher candidates, the volume develops a continuum of engagement, from apathy through to active allyship with LGBTQIA+ youth. Ultimately, the text highlights the necessity of integrating queered pedagogy in teacher education to facilitate candidates' movement through the continuum and leave them prepared, equipped, and willing to support children identifying as LGBTQIA+.
