Book ID/图书代码： 06540513B62510

English Summary/英文概要： Twelve-year-old Grayson Sender has been keeping a secret for eight years, and it’s getting too heavy to carry: Grayson is a girl who was born with a boy’s body. She has spent her lifetime imagining her boy clothes into girl clothes and avoiding close relationships that would reveal her secret. But now Grayson is getting too old to pretend, and when a new girl moves to Chicago at the beginning of sixth grade, she develops her first friendship—one that will motivate her to audition for the lead female role in the school play. When the school’s beloved Humanities teacher/drama coach casts her as Charlotte, her bumpy, complicated journey out of the shadows begins.
