What You Don't Know: A Story of Liberated Childhood by Anastasia Higginbotham (6+)

Anastasia Higginbotham's What You Don't Know: A Story of Liberated Childhood is about trusting kids to trust themselves.

For one "oversensitive" sixth grader, knowing he's gay isn't what worries him. What worries him is seeing everyone scared (and scarred). He might not be out yet, but he can sense his parents' concern, his friends' acceptance, and the church's hypocrisy. But what all of them don't know is that it's never occurred to him to do anything but love himself, and until he senses that it's safe to come out, he just plans on radiating love.
