When Aidan was born, everyone thought he was a girl. His parents gave
him a pretty name, his room looked like a girl's room, and he wore
clothes that other girls liked wearing. After he realized he was a
trans boy, Aidan and his parents fixed the parts of life that didn’t
fit anymore, and he settled happily into his new life. Then Mom and
Dad announce that they’re going to have another baby, and Aidan
wants to do everything he can to make things right for his new
sibling from the beginning—from choosing the perfect name to
creating a beautiful room to picking out the cutest onesie. But what
does "making things right" actually mean? And what happens
if he messes up? With a little help, Aidan comes to understand that
mistakes can be fixed with honesty and communication, and that he
already knows the most important thing about being a big brother: how
to love with his whole self.
When Aidan Became
a Brother is a heartwarming book that will resonate with
transgender children, reassure any child concerned about becoming an
older sibling, and celebrate the many transitions a family can
experience.
