Description

"This wonderful and compelling book is sure to de-isolate gay, lesbian, and bisexual youth who are struggling with their sexual identity while at the same time looking forward to their rite of passage. While all the coming-out stories are different, there are themes that are common to all, from Derek, a young African-American male living on the edge of two communities to Amy, a baby butch struggling to be herself in school and with her family. Youth, parents and professionals will be moved by the individual stories of youth coming of age. I was moved to tears."
