Chris Paul (Rainbows) Farias kicked off a 40+-stop tour for their children's book Guinea Pigs Don't Wear Pants at the Revival Art Store in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada.
The book has drawn both high-profile praise and online backlash ahead of publication. Publisher Rebel Goose Books chose to respond publicly: for every hateful message the publisher and author received about the book, one copy was donated through We Need Diverse Books to low-income schools in conservative regions across the United States, resulting so far in 230 donated books.
