Catherine Ryan Hyde's latest novel deals with transgender issues

Cambria author Catherine Ryan Hyde tackles the controversial topic of transgender identity in her latest book, "Jumpstart the World."

"I wanted to have a conversation with the world about transgender acceptance, to say, 'Maybe this isn't as big of a deal as you're making it out to be,'" explained Hyde, best known for her book-turned-movie, "Pay It Forward."

Hyde will read from "Jumpstart the World" and sign copies of it Nov. 13 at a San Luis Obispo fundraiser for Tranz-Central Coast, a local support group for transgender people.
