Two boys. Two secrets. David Piper has always been an outsider. His parents think he’s gay. The school bully thinks he’s a freak. Only his two best friends know the real truth – David wants to be a girl. On the first day at his new school Leo Denton has one goal – to be invisible.

Article Regarding Books The Art of Being Normal

Fantastic. Highly recommended. The Art of Being Normal is the story of a transgender character named David, and his journey to finally telling his family (and the rest of the world) that he wishes to be referred to as Kate, and would like to begin transitioning.I have to be honest and say that I don't believe I've read a book about a transgender character before, certainly not as the main focus of the story. I know they exist, so it's either down to my own lack of diverse reading or a distinct

You must have heard about The Art of Being Normal by now and, if not, I'm not sure how you have managed to miss it. Published on 1st January, it's one of the most talked about UKYA novels published this year so far, and has certainly set a high standard.Fourteen-year-old David Piper has only told two people his two best friends, Essie and Fox, who have both been incredibly supportive that he has wanted, needed, to be a girl ever since he was a small child. David has written a letter to his

Im transgender myself and I work with transgender youth, so of course Im bringing that to the table. I didnt hate this book in fact, I quite liked large parts of it, but there are a few issues that drag it down. One of them was that I don't feel like it was written with transgender people in mind as a part of the key audience, unless they're teenagers still trying to figure out even the most basic things. But at the same time, it's a bit of a narrow representation of transgender people. The

I wrote "The Good"-part of my review before reading other reviews, own voices-reviews. That's the sole reason I'm still going to stick with everything I wrote first in this part. Beware of "The Bad", though. There's a whole lot coming your way over there.THE GOODI flew through this book. Whether it's the content, the plot, the story line or the writing - I don't care. I absolutely flew through it and loved every second of doing so. The Art of Being Normal spoke to me in a way I didn't expect. I

Mixed feelings about this one, need to think on it.rtc

Oh, this is one cute diversity read! I highly recommend this if you love Simon vs. the Homo Sapiens Agenda!Just like in Simon, in this book it is about a diversity character, in this case a trans, but without the book being written in a learny way. You get to know David and you learn what it's like to be trapped in the wrong body because he is. And I also like Leo a lot! And I like how, at least in the Dutch version, the different point of views are indicated with different fonts. I really like

I'm a trans person and when I saw this book I was super excited. It had a cool cover and a premise I was personally interested in.However, once I started reading I was honestly very disappointed.I know that trans people have different experiences and points of view on their gender, but so many things about this book seemed off to me. The book isn't written by a trans person, and that was my first clue. In the blurb: "Two boys." and "David wants to be a girl."Being trans isn't about wanting to be
