Gracefully Grayson
by Ami Polonsky
Short but heartfelt story of a young girl born into a boy's body. I enjoyed it--what there was of it--but I wish she'd been a little more introspective. You feel like she jumped from one impulsive decision to another, never looking forward and never looking back. But wait--this is a pre-teen! That's perfectly normal adolescent behavior.
But still, there wasn't much emotion in her. It was all bottled up...or else a failure on the part of the author to empathize with her imaginary creation. I don't know. I wonder what other people thought?
Anyway, that's all I can say without stealing someone else's ideas.
