Beschreibung
Noa's Dad Quinn used to be Noa's Mom Carol. Quinns outside appearance has changed, but his heart stayed the same. This is a story about Noa and their Mom Carol, who later transitions to being their Dad, Quinn. It is about experiencing the transition of a loved one through the eyes of a child. Children's books with trans specific and trans empowering content are rare, especially stories about a transitioning parent or family member. This book wants to change the way children learn about loved ones who are trans, and offer strategies for grown-ups to talk with children about gender diversity. The book is geared at four to seven-year-olds, and will include a section for parents at the end of the book with examples helping to explain bodies, hormones, trans and gender diversity to children.

Their work is focused on raising visibility of trans & gender diverse people and advocating for their community's rights globally.
