Description

A memoir about what
it s like when they think you re their daughter, but you know you re
their son. For as long as he could
remember, Grayson has known he is a boy, not a girl. While his identical twin
sister wore princess dresses and danced ballet in a tutu, Grayson preferred his
Spider-Man costume or sweats. He was uncomfortable in anything considered
girly. People called him a tomboy, but he knew that wasn t right either. He
explained to his mother, I know I m supposed to be your daughter, but I feel
more like your son. I guess I m your… Dot-son. Grayson
is now twelve years old. This is his story about what it s like growing up
transgender–from small moments, like getting a new haircut or playing football,
to the big life events, like choosing a bathroom, coming out to his friends,
and picking a new name. Filled with humor and joy, Dotson is
a thought-provoking and honest story of one boy s journey to becoming his best
and truest self and sharing that with the world. The
book also includes helpful resources for transgender kids and families.
