My Dad Thinks I'm a Boy?!: A Trans Positive Children's Book
'My Dad thinks I'm a boy named Stephen who likes wrestling and fishing. But that's what my Dad likes.' Stephie is 7 years old. She likes bugs, books and spaghetti. Also, she's a girl... which should be pretty easy to understand, right? Well, not for her Dad! He's been mistaking her for a boy since she was born and struggles to see her for who she is. This powerful and uplifting book for children aged 6 - 9 and their families humorously portrays a situation that is often too common, where a trans child is forced to negotiate between their true self and their parents' love. With amusing illustrations, and a useful guide for adults, it's the perfect book to help show children that no one else than ourselves gets to decide who we are.Author: Sophie LabellePublisher: Jessica Kingsley PublishersPublished: 02/21/2020Pages: 48Binding Type: HardcoverWeight: 0.50lbsSize: 9.30h x 6.90w x 0.30dISBN: 9781787752214Audience: Ages 4-8Review Citation(s): School Library Journal 02/28/2020 pg. 1About the AuthorSophie Labelle is an internationally recognised trans cartoonist and public speaker, based in Montreal, Canada.
