Great book! submitted by Xris on August 26, 2022, 1:31pm I love that it has a main character of color and the way it explains how he feels he's a boy. The illustrations are great too, showing more of a blue palette for the things he was thinking, compared to the reality palette. Would be great for elementary kids! :)
