Fat-Friendly Books (33 books)

Listopia > Fat-Friendly Books

These are books that feature realistic and positive characters of size. While the best fat protagonists may struggle with their weight or hate themselves because of it at times, their authors know better and remind them that fat should never be cause for shame or censure, and that the true measure of a person is in the size of their heart, not the shape of their body.
