My Dad Thinks I'm a Boy?! by Sophie Labelle
A comic style children's book that tells the story of Stephie, a 7-year-old transgender girl, whose Dad is still struggling to recognize and accept her gender. It portrays a powerful message for children aged 6-9, that no one else other than ourselves gets to decide who we are.
Sophie Labelle's My Dad Thinks I'm A Boy is a hilarious, tender, zany, and thoughtful story about growing up with a parent who doesn't always understand youReaders will laugh, cry, and learn along with Stephie as she tries to help her dad see her for who she truly is. -- Kai Cheng Thom, award-winning author of From the Stars in the Sky to the Fish in the Sea
A powerful, authentic and engaging story that shifts our understanding of trans kids to a new and a more real level. This book is a breath of fresh air, that allows the reader to get to know trans people from their own perspective. Often our stories are told from people from the outside looking in, but Sophie cleverly manages to shift that focus to the trans person and their experiences, which gives the story more authenticity, realness and power. -- Owl (Ugla Stefanía Kristjönudóttir Jónsdóttir), writer, film maker and campaigner.
