Between : a memoir on gender transition by a mother and her trans son / by Telford, Gemma,author.; Telford, Leo,author.;
Includes bibliographical references.A heart-warming and honest memoir written by Gemma and Leo, a mother and son, recounting the story of Leo's gender transition. The lives of transgender people have evolved into a talking point in wider society. Many people now have an opinion on trans issues; however, most have not informed that opinion by speaking to a trans person first-hand. Between is a memoir told from the perspective of a mother and her transgender son, with the aim of destigmatizing and humanizing transgender people and the issues they face. Gemma is the first to admit she knew nothing, and felt vulnerable and uneducated, while Leo explains that he always felt different and how hard it was for him to face his family, his friends and the world. Their story provides an honest insight into what it's really like to come out, tell people, get help, grow up and live as a trans person, as well as what it feels like to parent a trans person. It beautifully illustrates the issues, pain, struggle and joy for trans people and their parents, and is a must-read for those in the same shoes, and those who want to be better friends and allies to the LGBTQ+ community.

Rebent sinner / by Coyote, Ivan E.(Ivan Elizabeth),1969-author.;
"Ivan takes on the patriarchy and the political, as well as the intimate and the personal in these beguiling and revealing stories of what it means to be trans and non-binary today, at a time in their life when they must carry the burden of heartbreaking history with them, while combating those who would misgender them or deny their very existence. These stories span thirty years of tackling TERFs, legislators, and bathroom police, sure, but there is joy and pleasure and triumph to be found here too, as Ivan pays homage to personal heroes like the late Leslie Feinberg while gently guiding younger trans folk to prove to themselves that there is a way out of the darkness. Rebent Sinner is the work of an accomplished artist whose plain truths about their experience will astound readers with their utter, breathtaking humanity."

Flyboy / by LeBlanc, Kasey,author.;
"After an incident at his school leaves closeted trans teenager Asher Sullivan needing stitches, his mother betrays him in the worst possible way-she sends him to Catholic school for his senior year. Now he has to contend with hideous plaid skirts, cranky nuns, and #bathroomJesus. Nighttime brings an escape for Asher when he dreams of the Midnight Circus-the one place where he is seen for the boy he truly is. Too bad it exists only in his sleep. Or at least, that's what he believes, until the day his annoyingly attractive trapeze rival, Apollo, walks out of his dreams and into his classroom heels of this realization that the magical circus might be real, Asher also learns that his time there is limited."--013+.Grades 10-12.
