'I believe that children who are questioning and exploring their gender are the gender bosses that we all so desperately need. I believe that they are our future.'

In this life-affirming, heartening and refreshing collection of interviews, young trans people offer valuable insight and advice into what has helped them to flourish and feel happy in their experience of growing up trans.

Speaking openly and candidly about their gender, their experiences of coming out, their aspirations and their fears – accompanied by interviews and support from their parents and carers – this audibook is beautiful proof of the potential for trans children to live rich and fulfilling lives when given the support and love they need.

With trademark candour and empathy, Juno Roche gives voice to a generation of gender explorers who are making gender work for them and in the process, reveals a kinder, more accepting world that we should all be fighting for.

'Juno is prolific in giving people a voice without feeding into the narrative of trans people having to prove who they are or their right to exist: she simply shows them as themselves, existing and being people with aspirations, hopes and dreams. A truly magnificent read that fills you with hope for the future.' (Fox Fisher, film-maker, trans campaigner and artist)
'Juno Roche is a writer that goes beyond the surface, and tackles topics with care, razor sharp intellect, but an open hearted accessibility. Juno's writing leaves me affirmed, but also challenged, and always wanting to read more.' (Travis Alabanza, performer, writer and theatre maker)
'Another groundbreaking unputdownable book from Juno, this time focusing on the stories of young trans and gender diverse people in their own words. These conversations provide all the evidence anyone could need that children who are responded to in supportive and affirming ways have joyful and fulfilling lives and look to the future with excitement, while those who are not continue to struggle profoundly. Juno's conversation with their own younger self is just the kind of time-travel many of us trans adults need in order to bring own our struggling inner kids into the potentially gender euphoric future imagined by these young people.' (Meg-John Barker, author of Gender: A Graphic Guide and How to Understand Your Gender)

This in as excellent book regardless of your gender or anything else, there is so much to learn from Juno Roche and the real life stories of all the people in this book - their experience of life growing up trans, their parents, their experience of education and educating the world - the difficulties faced and taking experience and putting it into action and bringing about change through knowing their right to be who they are. It is an inspiring collection of stories of young people bravely believing in their rights to be themselves. It is very moving, honest and full of great lessons about compassion that anyone can draw strength from. One of the best books I have read this year.

Incredible, brave and inspiring

Gender Explorers is an eye-opening audiobook about trans youth. It is a collection of interviews with transgender children and teenagers, conducted by the writer of this book at trans charity support groups, and some of the views and ideas about what it means to be trans are truly inspirational.
As a trans person myself, I found myself taken aback by how mature and intelligent what some of the interviewees have to say. They discuss their lives as trans youth and how their parents and schools reacted and it just brought a smile to my face to know that it isn't all doom and gloom as I had previously believed. I would highly recommend this to any young person who identifies as trans and is looking for reassurance about being themselves. This book, both its content and narration, felt like a warm hug as someone told me that everything was going to be alright.
There is even a resource guide with a list of UK charities that support trans people and their families, if anyone is looking for support and information.
