This is the story of little Cristina, a little girl whose parents thought she was a boy when she was born. Yes, a boy. She has always felt that she is a girl, and told her parents so when she was very little. Cris, which is what she likes people to call her, is a cheerful, intelligent transgender girl who fights for her right to be the person she feels she is. She wants to have a future of freedom and opportunities to grow and develop, like all any other girl her age.
