Critics Review

Sophie Labelle’s My Dad Thinks I’m A Boy is a hilarious, tender, zany, and thoughtful story about growing up with a parent who doesn’t always understand you. Readers will laugh, cry, and learn along with Stephie as she tries to help her dad see her for who she truly is. – Kai Cheng Thom, award-winning author of From the Stars in the Sky to the Fish in the SeaA powerful, authentic and engaging story that shifts our understanding of trans kids to a new and a more real level. This book is a breath of fresh air, that allows the reader to get to know trans people from their own perspective. Often our stories are told from people from the outside looking in, but Sophie cleverly manages to shift that focus to the trans person and their experiences, which gives the story more authenticity, realness and power. – Owl (Ugla Stefanía Kristjönudóttir Jónsdóttir), writer, film maker and campaigner.
