About the Book
An inspiring story about affirming a sibling's gender identity.Book Synopsis
2022 ALA Rainbow Book List
An inspiring story about affirming a sibling's gender identity. Evan loves being big brother to Sam and Finn. They do everything together--go fishing, climb trees, and play astronauts. But lately, Evan notices that he and Sam don't look like brothers anymore. Sam wants to have long hair, and even asks to wear a dress on the first day of school. As time goes by, Evan comes to understand why Sam wants to look like a girl--because Sam is a girl. Sam is transgender. And just like always, Sam loves to dream with Evan and Finn about going to the moon together. Based on one family's real-life experiences, this heartwarming story of a girl named Sam and the brothers who love and support her will resonate with readers everywhere.Review Quotes

"Its clear narrative arc, slightly didactic prose, and expressive art cohere into a picture book that is a solid jumping-off point for guardian- or educator-led discussions."--Publishers Weekly
"Recommended for public and elementary school libraries everywhere; transgender children need stories like this as it models both peer and self-acceptance in a logical, accessible, and loving way."--School Library Journal
"This sweet-spirited book tells how little Sam comes to find her true self...Sam knows she's a girl inside and she increasingly wants to manifest her true identity."--Booklist
