Finding My Spark by Isabelle Jameson and Sylvain Cabo, trans. by Ann Marie Boulanger (August 18th) When puberty hits, Alex begins to realize he's been misgendered as a girl his whole life. First, he stops wearing dresses and paints his room a dark color. Then he cuts his hair short. But people still aren't seeing the real him. His mom has always called him her "little star," but he doesn't feel like shining.
