Author Donna Gephart crafts a dual narrative about two remarkable young people: Lily, a transgender girl, and Dunkin, a boy dealing with bipolar disorder.

Sometimes our hearts see things our eyes can’t.

Lily Jo McGrother, born Timothy McGrother, is a girl. But being a girl is not so easy when you look like a boy. Especially when you’re in the eighth grade.

Dunkin Dorfman, birth name Norbert Dorfman, is dealing with bipolar disorder and has just moved from the New Jersey town he’s called home for the past thirteen years. This would be hard enough, but the fact that he is also hiding from a painful secret makes it even worse.

One summer morning, Lily Jo McGrother meets Dunkin Dorfman, and their lives forever change.

Mais empatia ao outro por favor!

Este é o segundo livro que termino nas férias e o primeiro de 2020. Significa que estou muito bem fisicamente já que não conseguia mais ler . Minhas percepções sobre o livro Lily &Dunkin, que trata de dois alunos do oitavo ano, um transgenero e um com transtorno bipolar, Tim ( Lily) e Norberto ( Dunkin) fala das descobertas, dores, buling, familia, aceitação e respeito. Recomendo a educadores e pais!
