So, I want to buy a book for my mum when I come out so it can explains to her anything that she may not understand (She loves to read) Any suggestions for a good book, I have to be able to get it at a local book store. Even though im going to get very strange looks buying it, but oh well :P
Please any suggestions would be really greatly appreciated.
The Last Time I Wore a Dress or The Uninvited Dilemma : A Question of Gender! :)
As a primer, this book is not bad:

This is freely available on the internet:
Mom, I Need To Be a Girl (1998) - Evelyn D. Lindenmuth * Amazon (http://www.amazon.com/dp/1419684388) * WorldCat (http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/40606207) * Online (http://ai.eecs.umich.edu/people/conway/TS/Evelyn/Evelyn.html)
This is a pamphlet put out by PFLAG:

I've read a lot of those available, but after I read True Selves I ordered ten copies to give to my relatives and some friends.
