NOTES
Abandoned to live with his grandparents in rural Tennessee, fifteen-year-old Dan adjusts to working on the farm, starting high school, and being queer in a conservative community
Ages 12 and up
Despite a life on the road with his free-spirited mother, fifteen-year-old Dan Stewart-Álvarez has always wanted to settle down. He just didn't think it'd be like this: with his mother abandoning him in rural Tennessee with two strangers--his gentle grandmother and conservative, rough-around-the-edges grandfather. Here, he is forced to adjust to working the farm, entering high school, and hardest yet--reckoning with his queerness in a severe Southern Baptist community. But even as Dan grows closer to his mawmaw, befriends fellow outsiders at school, and tries to make a new life for himself in Green Gables, he has to discover whether he can contend with intolerance and adapt to change without losing himself in the process
