review 1: By chance, I happened to go to a poetry reading at Greenfield Community College where Brett Axel was the featured poet. I was surprized and delighted to discover that as well as several books of poetry he had a children's book that dealt with gender identity and transgender issues simply and not contraversially, for five and six year olds. I read it and it is truly great.I can't say how great it would have been if the kids I had gone to school with had read this book before they met me. I think I'd have had a much easier time of it because this book, even tho there are no humans in it, completely humanizes people who don't fit the standard molds.
review 2: I was given a copy of this book in exchange for a fair review.I loved it. It so gently explains the feelin
... moreg of knowing your something else on the inside. The fear of making yourself standout and what others will think. And shows that life can be like. Everyone I've share this book with loved it as much as I have.One person maybe a bit more.She had been dealing with not "feeling right" in her body and the story seemed to have given her a bit of strength. I really hope that this isnt the last we hear about Julep (or maybe Tuck :) ). less
