520    "A brave firsthand account of author Alex Bertie's life, 
       struggles, and victories as a transgender teen, and a 
       guide for transitioning teens"--|cProvided by publisher. 
520    Bertie recounts his life, struggles, and victories as a 
       young trans man. Along the way, he provides readers with 
       accessible explanations of gender, sexuality, and 
       transitions. He explores without judgment how complicated 
       all these things can be, and how many equally authentic 
       ways there are to live as yourself and find happiness. -- 
       adapted from jacket 
520    "We are so strong. We fight to be ourselves. This is the 
       real stuff--the information you won't find on TV shows or 
       in news articles about trans people. The emotions, the 
       practicalities, the self-doubt...the stuff they can't cram
       into sixty minutes and that doesn't create a provocative 
       headline. Before he became known for his YouTube videos, 
       Alex Bertie was an isolated, often-afraid transgender 
       teenager looking for answers. In this revolutionary memoir
       and valuable resource, Alex recounts his life, struggles, 
       and victories as a young trans man. Along the way, he 
       provides readers with accessible, highly researched 
       explanations of gender, sexuality, and transitions of all 
       kinds. He explores without judgment how complicated 
       identities can be, and how many equally authentic ways 
       there are to be yourself and find happiness. With clarity 
       and compassion, Alex writes as a supportive older brother 
       for transitioning teens, their allies, their parents, and 
       anyone looking to better understand others--and 
       themselves."--Dust jacket.
