Paper doll : notes from a late bloomer / by Mulvaney, Dylan,author.;
"When Dylan Mulvaney came out as a woman in a TikTok on March 12th, 2022, she became a viral sensation almost overnight, thanks to both her candor and her joy. Emerging as a trailblazing voice on social media, Dylan's personal coming-out story blossomed into a platform for advocacy and empowerment for trans people all over the world. With her Days of Girlhood series, she connected with followers by exploring what it means to be a girl, from experimenting with makeup to story times to spilling the tea about laser hair removal; but Dylan also did not shy away from her truth about the transphobia she faced online. Nevertheless, she was determined to be a beacon of positivity. But shortly after celebrating day 365 of being a girl, it all came crashing down when an innocuous brand deal which sparked a media firestorm and right-wing backlash she was wholly unprepared for. Dylan was forced to reckon with how safe it would be to continue doing what she loves regardless of the vitriolic press and relentless paparazzi. Despite the hardships, she's loud, proud, and ready to share her truth. In her memoir, Paper Doll, Dylan pulls back the curtain of her "it girl" lifestyle with an honest, witty, and intimate reflection of her life post-transitioning. She covers everything from her first big break in theater to the first time her dad recognized her as a girl to how she handled scandals, cancellations, and tucking. Dylan's humor and honesty is woven throughout this colorful memoir, uncovering a life beyond the 365 days that will delight her fans and create new ones alike"--

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.

Maybe this will save me : a memoir of art, addiction, and transformation / by Dorfman, Tommy,author.;
For years, Tommy Dorfman turned her back on her thoughts and emotions, hoping they'd simply go away. After a lifetime of confusion, she finally gained clarity around her gender and began to transition. But there were still parts of herself she'd locked away, elements of her story that she needed, for the first time, to fully confront. She sought guidance in a tarot deck. Maybe This Will Save Me is structured through the cards of that tarot pull. The youngest of five children, she grappled with her own identity from an early age and spent her teenage years numbed by drugs and alcohol. At the same time, she harbored dreams of creative stardom and a desire to make herself seen. Charting her early struggles in theater, her rise to fame in 13 Reasons Why, her hard-fought journey to sobriety, and the relationships that shaped her, Maybe This Will Save Me is a luminously written, bracingly honest, and structurally audacious memoir of an artist whose vision transcends mediums.

Identity [graphic novel] : a story of transitioning / by Maison, Corey,2001-author.; Fantoons Animation Studios,colorist,artist,letterer.;
"What do you do when you are born as one gender, but feel yourself to be another? Gender dysmorphia affects thousands of people worldwide, but has been ignored or ridiculed in our culture. With this graphic novel, Corey Maison boldly shares her story of transitioning, so that other kids with gender dysmorphia and related conditions will no longer feel so isolated, hopeless, or lost. Corey Maison was born a girl, trapped in a boy's body. Growing up, Corey was more interested in dolls than trucks; in dresses than jeans. Everything about Corey was female . . . except her physicality. Known as gender dysphoria, this condition is devastating if not acknowledged. But society is slow to be sympathetic to the idea that a person's gender is not entirely based on physiology, but instead is fluid, and a combination of emotional and psychological self-awareness along with, or sometimes more importantly, physical characteristics. IDENTITY tells the complex and moving tale of a young person who knows that their true gender is not the one they were assigned at birth. With unconditional love and support from her mother, Corey successfully starts the transition process with hopes of being comfortable in her own skin, being accepted by others, and raising awareness of young people who wish to transition. At 16-years-old, Corey has become a voice for other trans teens, battling bullies and helping others who are on their own individual journeys of identity."--Provided by publisher.
