🧠 My thoughts 
This book is an undeniably heart-warming read for trans kids, offering a much-needed sense of affirmation and light-heartedness. Its approachable tone and positivity shine through, making it a comforting story for younger readers. The book's ability to gently tackle identity while keeping things joyful is truly commendable.
 
That said, I didn’t quite find it relatable on a personal level. Despite the warmth, it didn’t resonate deeply in my heart or linger long after I finished reading. It felt like it skimmed the surface of emotions and experiences, leaving me wishing for more depth or a stronger emotional connection.
 
👍 What I like
  • Heart-warming and affirming for trans kids
  • Maintains a light-hearted, positive tone
  • An easy and approachable read for younger audiences

👎 What I don’t like
  • Didn’t feel personally relatable
  • Lacked emotional depth, leaving little lasting impact
  • Struggled to leave a strong impression after finishing
