Summary: In this story we meet a girl. She used to be happy. But as she grew things did not feel quite right. She felt more like a boy than a girl. What would happen if she told people? Would they understand? Would they help?This book for young children has been written to provide something adults can share with children to allow them to talk about feelings of dysphoria, the topic of gender and what it means to be transgender.The hope is that parents can share the book with their children, siblings and extended family as a means to broach a difficult subject. The author and publisher also have a keen interest in helping teachers discuss LGBT issues in schools in a sensitive manner, and to create a more informed understanding amongst the whole school community. To this end, free teaching resources are made available through the publisher's website.
