INTERMEDIATE FICTION
Gino, Alex

George

(2) 4-6 Ten-year-old George is, outwardly, a boy. But inside, she's a girl, and that disconnect is becoming impossible to endure. There are setbacks, but with the help of a few allies, particularly best friend Kelly, George prevails. Gino can employ a heavy hand, but the heart of this novel is George's achingly poignant struggle to be herself, and that heart beats strong and true.
