Inspiring account of two crucial years in the life of a transgender girl and the support and impetus provided by her mother to enable her to begin her transition smoothly. Through a series of "happy happenings" forced by the mother of the protagonist of this story, the girl encounters ideal situations that make it easier for her to begin her gender transition. This is a story that deals with an always delicate process with optimism. A story that shows how the positive attitude of a Mother Courage finds feasible ways for the protagonist girl to assume her gender without subjecting her to a thousand difficulties and arbitrariness. In this sense, it provides new narratives that contrast with the pessimistic vision that is often offered of the obstacles that a transgender person has to overcome and that frequently serve as an alibi to prevent gender transitions. In a world where gender reassignment no longer represents a social condemnation, transgender children should have the support of their parents, and parents should act as motivators once the children's true feelings have become apparent. This is the conclusion drawn by anyone who reads this novel.
