Melissa (previously published as GEORGE)

by Alex Gino

Identity, courage, and bathroom politics.

For you if

your kid is figuring out who they are and needs a story where someone gets to become who they actually are

Melissa knows she’s a girl, even if the world insists she’s not. Gino’s groundbreaking novel invites young readers to witness one child’s quiet act of truth and bravery. Simple, tender, and revolutionary in its empathy — a story that proves being yourself is the bravest assignment there is.
