The Awesome Autistic Guide for Trans Teens. And the title really tells it as it is. It covers definitions for words such as “transgender” and “demiboy.” It gives advice for situations, such as responses for questions people may ask about your identity. It even gives an example script for coming out.
Both authors are autistic and not cis. It’s such a great resource that I look forward to having for youth who are interested.
This book was everything I needed despite I'm not a teenager, it affirmed me and told me what I needed to hear. I love there are activities where you have space to write in response to the chapter you've just read. it's wonderful. this will comfort and help so many teens.
I really appreciated that this was written by #ActuallyAutistic trans people, and not by "allies". I think there's a lot to be gained from this text, and I certainly have students who will benefit. As an autistic person myself, it's especially important to me that books on autism be written by autistic people and not neurotypicals.
