Finding Stevie

 Nonfiction by Cathy Glass


Stevie is fourteen years old and considers himself gender-fluid, a term that foster carer Cathy Glass has never heard. She has to learn quickly what it means in order to help Stevie, who is having trouble in school and rebelling against his grandparents, who can't seem to understand his gender confusion.

I liked this story just a little less that some of the others. Sometimes Cathy came across to me as a little sanctimonious in this book; usually she is very caring and accepting of both the child and his or her family, but in this case she seemed awfully judgey of Stevie's grandparents. Still, it's good to know Cathy isn't perfect.

I also read recently by this author: Please Don't Take My Baby
