@bolt451@writing.exchange You're probably not dealing with the book bans that we are in the U.S. But I haven't seen a lot of books with trans characters in UK kidlit. I've seen many here, but those are the ones being banned most right now. Your best bet would be to go to a big bookstore, like a Waterstones or Blackwells, and just look at what's on their shelves. I've seen some LGBTQ titles lately (like Ian Eagleton's https://www.owletpress.com/ourcreators/ian-eagleton), so I'd say there's some hope!
