I'll say my not giving this 5⭐ isn't do to the content, although I do feel like the content could do with framing the trans experience a bit less ethnocentrically. But it's a great resource if you're trans in the U.S.! I took a ⭐ off because of how I felt the hardcopy version itself was not very friendly to persons with disabilities, in my opinion. I get and appreciate this book would like to be a introductory textbook type of resource for trans and allied youth and individuals, but I cannot for the life of me understand why they had to use the rigid hardcover that typical textbooks use. I have poor circulation in my hands and feet due to medication I need to take, and it was pretty difficult and almost painful to hold open the book. The book is just not thick/heavy enough to keep such a hard binding open with ease. On top of this, the glossy textbook paper makes it so frustrating to use a book light. I just feel it was a questionable choice with no paperback alternative, that I know of anyways. Otherwise, I thought this book had so many positives in terms of the content, including trans youth voices, and trying to make the topic of gender identity more accessible for our kids!
