The main province of Maine, the main theme of this book, was one of the earliest countries through the law "Establishing a domestic partnership of same-sex couples", but trans-gender rights across transnational borders It opened up. The problem that led to the lawsuit was that after Orono School Board entered the fifth grade, Orono School Board decided to exclude Maine's transgender daughter Nicole from using her bath - Maine Christian Citizenship Coalition Reaction to pressure. After more than five years, this case was ultimately resolved at the Main State Supreme Court level. Washington Post's award winning Washington Post health professional writer, Nut (Shadow · Bright Agulas: a superb tale of a man from brain trauma to artistic victory, 2011 etc.), multi-level story, first private Please use Jonas and Wyatt with the same twin boys woven in. At the age of 3, the twins were sociable, healthy and healthy, but Wyatt began to show the gender identity problem. He began to show interest in girls' clothes and toys, saying "My father hates my penis" to his father. The author records the solid evolution of Wyatt belief that he is indeed a girl and the dynamics of evolution that was born in the family. Nutt reports a medical view that gender is physiologically established in the brain and is a genetic problem. This is especially attractive if the same twins grow together and only one pair is degenerate. In this fascinating story, it is clear that as Wyatt becomes Nicole, as the stakes increase and the pressure rises, the emotional bonds within the family deepens.

Amy Ellis Nutt is a journalist awarded the Pulitzer Prize, and it is reflected in the quality of her books, as it uniquely unifies all themes of transgendered girls and their families. "Beacon Nicole" is very easy to read and can be done with 2 to 3 seats. I will definitely recommend this book as it is comprehensive, valuable and humanitarian in seeing the most important issues faced by today's transgender youth.

Amy Ellis Nut spent nearly four years to report on a problem-centered personal diary, home video, the problem faced by this immersive American family facing clinical logs, legal documents, Medical record, and Maine itself. Today's cultural argument Nicole resonates with raising children, being inconsistent with social customs and norms, or having to accept life unexpectedly. This is a story that sticks to your beliefs and your own stories - it urges us all to do the same. (From publisher)
