Hi,

As a 7th grade LA teacher, I used "Why I Learned to Cook" by Sara Farizan from the compilation Fresh Ink. Clear LGBTQ narrative and kids liked it a lot. I also liked "Flying Lessons" by Soman Chainani from the compilation Flying Lessons and other Short Stories. The boy protagonist is discovering his identity and the LGBTQ connection is ambiguous. I thought it was great.

Good luck!

Sarah

We recently bought Blackout as well as this title, Meet Cute with stories by        
Kass Morgan. I know Nina LaCour's story is about two girls. Also perhaps Up All Night: 13 Stories Between Sunset and Sunrise.

Good morning,

I have an English teacher looking for a short story by a popular YA author (preferably LGBTQ) with an LGBTQ protagonist. I've stumbled on one or two, but looking for more.  Any suggestions?? 

Thanks in advance for your help.  Have a wonderful day!!
