Fish In The Sky

Josh Stephenson's thirteenth year starts with a baffling sequence of events, including an odd gift from his estranged father, the arrival of his flirty seventeen-year-old female cousin, locker-room teasing about certain embarrassing anatomical changes, and wondering if dreams of love can ever come true.

In the magical time between night and day, when both the sun and the moon are in the sky, a child is born in a little blue house on a hill. And Miu Lan is not just any child, but one who can change into any shape they can imagine. The only problem is they can't decide what to be: A boy or a girl? A bird or a fish? A flower or a shooting star? At school, though, they must endure inquisitive looks and difficult questions from the other children, and they have trouble finding friends who will accept them for who they are. But they find comfort in the loving arms of their mother, who always offers them the same loving refrain: "whatever you dream of / i believe you can be / from the stars in the sky to the fish in the sea." In this captivating, beautifully imagined picture book about gender, identity, and the acceptance of the differences between us, Miu Lan faces many questions about who they are and who they may be. But one thing's for sure: no matter what this child becomes, their mother will love them just the same. Kai Cheng Thom is a writer, performance artist, and psychotherapist in Toronto.

"To me, Mueangnan is like the ‘fish in the sky.’ He’s truly out of my reach, so impossible that I should give up or get hurt. But I, Pi, am only good at studying, not smart at love. That’s why I’ve been chasing after him from a distance for two years. Once I’ve made up my mind that I’m going to win his heart no matter what… The Med Prince suddenly becomes clingy to my fish in the sky. That asshole is only handsome, smart, popular… That’s all! I will never back down, though! First of all, I gotta get rid of this damn Med Prince. But as I am doing that… why the hell did things turn out this way?
