Starting at the age of 11, Ivan bounced between residential treatment centers, psychiatric facilities, and group homes in Alaska and Montana. A childhood of abuse, neglect, and abandonment had taken its toll on him. Just before his 15th birthday, when life seemed it could not get any worse, Ivan was diagnosed with Ewing’s Sarcoma, a form of bone cancer. Alone in the world and now facing the fight of his life he was moved to yet another state for cancer treatment. With the help of his caseworker he was reunited with his older brother, whom he had not seen in many years. After finishing a year of cancer treatment, Ivan was again separated from his brother and sent to a new foster home. Emotionally shut down and nearly nonverbal, Ivan entered this new home. Despite the hopelessness of his life, a young man emerged who was not the broken, disturbed child he was portrayed by the records to be. A teen with a zest for life and love to share was waiting for a chance to belong.

Sex education materials meant to explain important basics to kids are too-often not written with an empathic understanding of what those basics are. This is particularly obvious regarding books that include LGBTQ identities.

It explores sex, dating, relationships, puberty, and both physical and online safety in one resource.The issue, today, is not whether or not queer youth will get sex education. The issue is how and where they will gather information and whether or not the information they gather with be applicable, unreliable, or exploitative. Equipping teens and their families with knowledge and self-confidence, this work provides...
