Any grandparent who wants to learn how to be a positive and loving presence in their transgender grandchild's life needs to read this book. -- Liz Dyer, Founder of Real Mama Bears Many years ago we offered the first grandparents group at the Gender Spectrum family conference-to standing room only. Now Janna Barkan gives everyone a wonderful chance to sit down-- with A Grand Love in hand. A must read if you are a grandparent, parent, or a person who wants to learn--from the words of grandparents, parents, children, and the author's unique expertise-how to love, support, and celebrate transgender, gender diverse, and gender creative young people, especially if they are your grandchild. -- Diane Ehrensaft, Ph.D, Director of Mental Health, UCSF Benioff Children’s Hospital Child and Adolescent Gender Program
