Lewis has a few things to say to his younger teen self.
He knows she's confused about who to snog.
He knows she's really a he and will ultimately realize this...
But she's going to go through a whole lot of mess (some of it
funny, some of it not funny at all) to get to that point. Lewis is
trying to tell her this ... but she's refusing to listen.
In Welcome to St Hell, author-illustrator Lewis Hancox
takes readers on the hilarious, heartbreaking and healing path
he took to make it past trauma, confusion, hurt and dubious fashion
choices in order to become the man he was meant to be.
