I was sent a copy of this book to review via Net Galley. All thoughts are my own!
CW: Misgendering, detailed descriptions of gender dysphoria
OMGGGG. I wish I had this book as a kid. It is so important and great to have books like this for trans kids. This follows a trans girl experiencing gender dysphoria and how she helps reduce it by socially transitioning. For Nisha, her gender dysphoria is a monster that won't go away. I love the way the author explained gender dysphoria because it really illustrated how it's experienced by showing Nisha in social settings.
I love the way the monster was illustrated and how simple this explains gender dysphoria for kids. I also love the FAQ for parents at the end. It's super detailed! This is a must-read for trans people and parents of trans kids. You'll learn a lot, especially how to go about your kid coming out to you. The author states to give them affirming care, which I 100% agree with.
I will be ordering myself a copy of this!
