About This Book
Reach for this book when your child is beginning to question the 'fixed' nature of the world around them or when your family is navigating a period of significant change and revelation. It is an ideal choice for the middle-schooler who feels like they are the only ones growing while the adults in their lives remain static. The story follows Annabelle, a sixth-grader who discovers her father is trans, a secret that has been kept from her for her entire life. Through this discovery, the book explores themes of honesty, the layered nature of identity, and the realization that parents are whole people with their own complex histories. It is a tender, sophisticated tool for opening conversations about gender, family secrets, and the courage it takes to be your authentic self within a community.
