Summary

"Second Son is a story that intimately explores the transition experience of Ryan Sallans, born Kimberly Ann Sallans. Each chapter pulls the reader through Ryan's transition from infant to child, child to body-obsessed teenage girl, teenage girl to eating-disordered young woman, female to male, daughter to son, and finally a beloved partner to a cherished fiancé. It offers readers a unique glimpse of life and love as lived by a uniquely talented and truth-telling man. This is an autobiography for people who love memoirs, individuals struggling with their gender identity, parents seeking to learn more about their own children, adults seeking inspiration, and for college classrooms (specifically psychology, gender studies, and English)."--Provided by publisher.
