Ve wants to share vis singing, dancing, and acting talents with the world, but ve is caught at a crossroads with two paths to choose from. On one path, ve is free to do what ve loves—to have fun and be free to be the way ve truly wants to be. The other path is where ve tucks away vis passion and soul and stops dreaming big. But with the help of vis brave teacher, Mx. Magic, STAR learns to dream bigger and more freely than ve ever has before...” This story is about STAR, an artist at heart with talents and dreams of singing, dancing, and acting. However, STAR doesn’t quite fit the mold and must make a choice: do what ve loves and be who ve wants to be, or hide away and risk unhappiness in exchange for fitting in. Ve is in a very lonely, hopeless place when Mx Magic, ve’s compassionate teacher, comes to the rescue with an inspiring message. This is a heart-warming story about self-love, self-expression, and acceptance that is perfect for children trying to work through the rigid social roles imposed them by a cis-heteronormative society. This book would also make a great educational resource for parents and teachers looking to better understand gender non-conforming children.
