Pizza Hut is facing fierce condemnation from conservatives and different social media critics for promoting a book about “drag children” for its “Book It!” studying incentive program.
“Pizza Hut has gone full woke, now we should make them full broke,” conservative creator Brigitte Gabriel tweeted.
The “Book It!” web site options the book “Big Wig,” which is described as a “fantastic read-aloud” book that “celebrates the common childhood expertise of dressing up and the arrogance that comes with placing on a dressing up.”
The book is geared in direction of kids in pre-kindergarten as much as third grade. The Simon & Schuster web site boasts that the “Big Wig” image book “celebrates drag children.”

“In the spirit of Julián Is a Mermaid, this irrepressible image book celebrates drag children, individuality, and self-confidence from the attitude of a superb wig!,” the outline states.
Critics of the youngsters’s book lambasted Pizza Hut, with some suggesting a boycott over the corporate embracing “wokeness.”
