Be who you are meant to be: Laverne Cox

by Maria Isabel Sanchez Vegara

Laverne Cox is an icon to many. She has shown us how to live an authentic life. How did she come to live as her true self and to be comfortable with her identity? Young children will find out as they explore this latest, excellent entry in the ongoing series Little People, Big Dreams.

Any child who knows that their perceived sex does not mesh with their identity will be reassured by this book. It will also be a wonderful tool in teaching acceptance and respect for others. It belongs in nursery school and home libraries. Well done!

Many thanks to NetGalley and Frances Lincoln Children’s Books (Quarto Publishing Group) for this title. All opinions are my own.

I love to read, recommend books and open the world of reading to others. I tutor to ensure that the next generation of readers will know the joys of a good book because their reading skills have improved. I am an avid reader, especially of mysteries and fiction. I believe that two of the world's greatest inventions were the public library and eyeglasses! View all posts by joycesmysteryandfictionbookreviews
