"A gem of trans joy in this increasingly transphobic landscape... Real Boy isn't just trans inclusive, it's trans-first. " - Jesse Smith, Transwrites
"A close and sympathetic look at the difficulties and rewards in the life of a trans child... particularly useful to parents of young people starting to find that their gender identity is not what is expected of them." - Julian Swainson, Norwich Eye
"Rings painfully true. Real Boy follows in the path of traditional fairy tales; it is not pretty, nor is it kind - but it holds a vital message that it would be foolish to ignore." - Robyn Holdaway, Actor
