Loved this coming-of-age story about transgender tween Obie. There are some really tough scenes in the book but Obie is surrounded by supportive parents and teachers. There's also a little romance, which I loved. The authors end notes are great. Hopeful.

Absolutely beautiful. A beautiful, heartbreaking and heartwarming story. Without a doubt this story is a must-read, especially for cis folks. There’s a lot to learn from this story.
