General Note "My latest novel is about an intersex teen, Alex, who has been raised as a boy but now wants to be identified as a girl." - Alyssa Brugman, Publisher website.
Visit publisher website at URL below, where the author writes about finding an authentic voice for writing about an intersex teen Alex? Teaching notes also available.
Summary Note "Alex wants change. Massive change. More radical than you could imagine. Her mother is not happy, in fact she's imploding. Her dad walked out. Alex has turned vegetarian, ditched one school, enrolled in another, thrown out her clothes. And created a new identity. An identity that changes her world. And Alex-the other Alex-has a lot to say about it. Alex As Well is a confronting and heartfelt story of adolescent experience of questioning identity, discovering sexuality, navigating friendships and finding a place to belong. Alex is a strong, vulnerable, confident, shy and determined character, one you will never forget." - Publisher website.
