Sus papás le dieron un nombre bonito, su cuarto se veía como un cuarto de niña y usaba ropa que le gustaba a otras niñas. Después de darse cuenta que era un niño trans, Aidan y sus papás arreglaron las partes de su vida que ya no encajaban y se asentó alegremente a su nueva vida. Y luego su mamá y papá anunciaron que iban a tener otro bebe. Aidan quiere hacer todo que se pueda para asegurar que todo esté bien para su nueva hermana o hermano desde el principio: desde escoger el nombre perfecto hasta crear un cuarto hermoso y encontrar el mameluco más precioso. ¿Pero, de echo, qué significa hacer que "todo esté bien"? ¿Y qué pasa si se equivoca?

After he realized he was a trans boy, Aidan and his parents fixed the parts of life that didn't fit anymore, and he settled happily into his new life. Then Mom and Dad announce that they're going to have another baby, and Aidan wants to do everything he can to make things right for his new sibling from the beginning--from choosing the perfect name to creating a beautiful room to picking out the cutest onesie.

When Aidan Became a Brother is a heartwarming book that will resonate with transgender children, reassure any child concerned about becoming an older sibling, and celebrate the many transitions a family can experience.
