{"product_id":"9789491337741","title":"GUS","description":"This beautifully and colourful illustrated book is very suitable for children and people around them who are confronted with gender dysphoria. \u003cp\u003eWhen you have a very good idea about who you are, but your surroundings expect different behaviour from you because of your appearance; that can be confusing. Who are you then? Your inside or your outside?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book can help to give insight and meaning to children who are confronted with gender dysphoria. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is clear from the start of this book that Gus is blue and, therefore, displays blue behaviour. The fact that his outside appearance is orange forces people around him to expect orange behaviour of him. This is difficult for Gus. Children, but also adults, can imagine that Gus wants to do blue things because he 'is ' blue. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAnd that he finds it hard to be like orange geese, even though he looks like them. What happens to Gus will be very recognisable. Everybody can easily place themselves in his position and wonder how to deal with it. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAnd in the end, this applies to us all. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe don't have keys to our hearts, we have to rely on what others say, they feel and believe about themselves. It is important not to judge children who have to walk this path.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEverything is always the same in the beautiful and colourful land of the Key Geese.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBlue is always blue.\u003cbr\u003eOrange is always orange. \u003cbr\u003eAlso for Gus, an ordinary little gosling with a blue heart.\u003cbr\u003eHe is nearly ready to receive his colour, \u003cbr\u003eand to become what he is: blue. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSuddenly something goes wrong. Gus, with the blue heart, \u003cbr\u003eaccidentally ends up with the orange goslings.\u003cbr\u003eBy a twist of fate, Gus ends up with an orange outside that doesn't match his blue heart.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is a story about a brave little gosling that, through trial and error, finds out who he really is.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eGender dysphoria or gender identity disorder (GID) is the dysphoria (distress) a person experiences as a result of the sex and gender they were assigned at birth.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Graviant","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47060251541744,"sku":"9789491337741","price":21.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9789491337741_p0.jpg?v=1763676773","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9789491337741","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
