About this eBook

The central character of this book is Max, a thirteen-year-old boy who has the courage of his conviction to dress as a girl and think differently to other boys his age. Max is an Adonis, with unmistakably stunning androgynous looks, captivating emerald green eyes, and mid-length blonde hair. Despite a loving, supportive family and their unconditional positive regard for him, his good looks both work for him and against him as he questions himself and his choices as he experiences the scorn of others. He narrates his journey through high school as he enjoys a change in status from being bullied and a pariah, to becoming accepted as one of the popular kids. This is a fun, engaging, heart-warming and an enlightening book with a twist at the end. It will raise a smile, bring a tear, and give hope to the reader. It is book for all young people coming of age in search of self and their identity. It is also a must read for all adults involved in education, child adolescent and mental health services and social care.
