I have a former student who transgendered right after high school. I wish there had been books for him when I had 'her'. It was a hard time for the family, trying to give support in a non-supportive world. I'll look for Maya's Blanket and The Sock Thief, both sound good!

When I read the part about the girl with the shoe lift and how they called her Frankenstein, it broke my heart. Having a daughter with a limb length difference makes me very sensitive to those issues!Michele Knotthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05087579707297009719noreply@blogger.com
