Formally titled George, this is the unforgettable

debut from Alex Gino

Allow me to introduce you to a remarkable book, full of love,

wonder, hope, and the importance of getting to be who you were

meant to be. You must read this. - David Levithan, author

of Every Day and editor of George.

When people look at George, they think they see a boy. But she

knows she’s not a boy. She knows she’s a girl.

George thinks she’ll have to keep this a secret forever. Then

her teacher announces that their class play is going to be Charlotte’s

Web. George really, really, REALLY wants to play Charlotte.

But the teacher says she can’t even try out for the part … because

she’s a boy.
