Über diesen Titel

Penguin presents the audiobook edition of My Brother's Name is Jessica written by John Boyne, read by Joe Jameson.

Sam Waver's life has always been pretty quiet. A bit of a loner, he struggles to make friends, and his busy parents often make him feel invisible. Luckily for Sam, his older brother, Jason, has always been there for him. Sam idolises Jason, who seems to have life sorted - he's kind, popular, amazing at football, and girls are falling over themselves to date him.

But then one evening Jason calls his family together to tell them that he's been struggling with a secret for a long time. A secret which quickly threatens to tear them all apart. His parents don't want to know and Sam simply doesn't understand.

Because what do you do when your brother says he's not your brother at all? That he's actually . . . your sister?

John Boyne made his name with The Boy In The Striped Pyjamas and he's on stellar form in My Brother's Name is Jessica. A sensitively written and timely tale.
A story with so much heart that the pages practically pulse. Both funny and moving... this is a must-read for all ages

the transgender topic is handled from the perspective of the sibling of an trans person. And how they also feel. Nice idea.
