One ordinary day, a caseworker from the Department of Children and Families knocked on the Hays family's door to investigate an anonymous complaint about the upbringing of their transgender child. This book asks us all to love better, not just for the sake of Hays's child but for children everywhere enduring injustice and prejudice just as they begin to understand themselves. A call to action, an ode to community, a plea for empathy, a hope for a better future. This is a love letter to a child who has always known exactly who she is - and who is waiting for the rest of the world to catch up.
