Have you heard of a teenage girl named Jazz? I forget her lat name, but she wrote a children's book about being trans (I have a boys body but a girls brain) and I think that's awesome.

trans-parenting Answer:

I have heard of Jazz, yes!  And her book, I Am Jazz is on my to-read list.  She was recognized this last year as part of the Out 100 list, and the Advocates 40 under 40.  In any case, I think she seems pretty great and has been a fantastic representative of trans kids.  She is currently working on her own organization for trans kids called the Transkids Purple Rainbow Foundation.  It will be exciting to see where her advocacy will take her as she continues to grow up.

Jazz is awesome! :)
