Description

'My Dad thinks I'm a boy named Stephen who likes wrestling and fishing. But that's what my Dad likes.' 

Stephie is 7 years old. She likes bugs, books and spaghetti. Also, she's a girl... which should be pretty easy to understand, right? Well, not for her Dad He's been mistaking her for a boy since she was born and struggles to see her for who she is. 

This powerful and uplifting book for children aged 6 - 9 and their families humorously portrays a situation that is often too common, where a trans child is forced to negotiate between their true self and their parents' love. 

With amusing illustrations, and a useful guide for adults, it's the perfect book to help show children that no one else than ourselves gets to decide who we are.
