This book's main global issue is transgender.

The book tries to show us the difference between Gay and Transgender importantly.

Examples

I know is kind of off the boundary but this was my examples. Pg.191: "He's not gay," I said. "He's trans. He's not what he appears. He'll show you. He's going to change into her girl role. Except, it's not really a role. It's who he really is. Luna. Who she is."

People just can't seem to get that Liam isn't changing into another person, Luna represents who she has always been inside. By being Luna, she just being more herself than before.

Example

Pg.5:"Wait, Re." Liam runs after me. "You be the daddy. Daddies are cool. You can come home with a surprise for Mommy. Like you won a million dollars, so you bought me a new house and a car."

From an early age Liam's been giving off pretty clear signals that he wants to be a girl. After all, aren't most little boys convinced that all girls have cooties?
