Publisher's Synopsis
"On the inside, I'm sure I'm a boy."
Ava is shocked and confused when her older sister, Riley, shares her desire to be a boy. Ava keeps her sister's secret for a while, but then Riley cuts her hair short and demands that everyone in the family call her Rick. Ava gets teased about Riley at school, taunted at softball practice, and snubbed by a church friend. She begs God to "please make Riley act like a girl again." But when God doesn't answer her prayer, Ava comes up with her own plan. In I Want My Sister Back, Ava and her family take the first steps on their journey with a loved one who struggles with gender identity. What begins as shock, confusion, and anger moves toward honesty, forgiveness, and love.
