Each Friday I share the link to a read-aloud preview of a book from our school library, with the SRCSA community. The “First-chapter Friday” selection for Dec. 10, 2021 is The Other Boy, by M. G. Hennessey.
Twelve-year-old Shane loves baseball, drawing, and hanging out with his best friend until a transphobic school bully targets him. When Shane loses hope for finding his place in the world, some unexpected allies step forward. This book is an inductee to the Rainbow Project Book List, administered by the Social Responsibilities Round Table of the American Library Association.
