There really is no such thing as a typical teenage boy in this book about Shane Woods. While he may play sports, draws graphic novels, and hang out with other boys, there is one big difference, Shane is a Tomboy, but nobody at school knows. This is the story of how Shane’s classmates found out and how they reacted. Some may find the transgender theme uncomfortable, but the characters and situations are tastefully done.
