The Underwater Ballerina: Two Sides to Transition - Paperback

by K. Helms (Author), Melody Rhyme McMillan (Author)

"Mom, I'm trans."
These courageous words started a one-year journey of discovery and hope between mother and daughter.
The Underwater Ballerina presents raw, open, and honest dialogue that reveals the transgender quest for authenticity and teaches the many love lessons that come with acceptance.

The narrative challenges a parent to choose a love response to their child. Why?
Because as a powerful life force, love invites deeper unforeseen possibilities, nurtures new understanding, and widens the heart in ways unimaginable.

"This book should be read by all and shared with everyone regardless of age, gender, religious beliefs or
personal feeling...
...The lesson for everyone here is, parents... love your children... each and every day." - Fred R. Greenwood Jr.,
English Teacher, Bangkok, Thailand
