Jacob loves playing dress-up, when he can be anything he wants to be.

Some kids at school say he can't wear "girl" clothes, but Jacob wants to wear a dress to school. Can he convince his parents to let him wear what he wants?

This heartwarming story speaks to the unique challenges faced by children who don't identify with traditional gender roles.
