Lately, I've thought about writing a transgender children's book, or one for young adults.
If I do, I won't be the first: Jazz Jennings of Florida has just published "I Am Jazz".
Her aim, she says, is to show children--whether or not they identify with the gender assigned to them at birth-- what it's like to be transgender.
I want to read it: It sounds like the kid of book I wish I could have had when I was growing up.
Even more to the point, she's living the life I sometimes wish I could have lived: She began living as a girl at age five.
