Description
Jamie Rambeau is a happy 11-year-old non-binary kid who likes nothing better than hanging out with their two best friends Daisy and Ash. But when the trio find out that in Year Seven they will be separated into one school for boys and another for girls, their friendship suddenly seems at risk.
The friends decide to take matters into their own hands and sort out the situation once and for all. As they work together, their efforts eventually become a rooftop protest against the binary rules for the local schools. But as Jamie realises the importance of their cause, they also face the risk of losing both their friends forever.
This heartwarming story is about finding the strength and resilience to be exactly who you are, and making your own place in the world when others don't think you fit anywhere.
