AND THE DRAGONS DO COME Raising a Transgender Kid in Rural America

David de Vries provides an excellent narration of this comprehensive explanation of the issues surrounding transgender people and healthcare in the United States today. De Vries' clear diction and compassionate tone represent the book well. Author Butler has a transgender daughter, and his audiobook provides background, scientific research, and current political and legal information to help the listener fully understand both the issues and the personal lived experiences of a family with a young trans person. With many states adding legislation to limit or completely revoke access to gender-affirming care, this audiobook hits right at the heart of the current struggles of transgender individuals and the people who care for them. A strong performance of an important account. [Published: JANUARY 2026]
