Melissa, previously published as George until April 2022, is a children's novel about a young transgender girl written by American author Alex Gino. The novel tells the story of Melissa, a fourth-grade girl who is struggling to be herself to the rest of the world. The rest of the world sees Melissa as George, a boy. Melissa uses the class play, Charlotte's Web, to show her mom that she is a girl by switching roles with her best friend, and playing the part of Charlotte. Scholastic first published the novel on August 25, 2015, and it has had a mixed reaction because of its LGBT+ content. In 2021, Gino retitled the novel Melissa.

  • George (Originaltitel: George) ist ein Kinderroman, verfasst von Alex Gino. Gino lebt in den USA und ist dort schriftstellerisch tätig. Gino ist genderqueer und möchte nicht als männlich oder weiblich bezeichnet werden. Das Buch George erzählt die Geschichte des transgender Mädchens Melissa, die bei der Geburt dem männlichen Geschlecht zugeordnet worden ist, weshalb sie von ihren Eltern auch den titelgebenden Namen George erhalten hat. Ihr Umfeld weiß noch nichts davon, dass Melissa ein transgender Mädchen ist, weshalb sie dies durch die Mitwirkung als weibliche Figur in einem Schultheaterstück ihren Mitmenschen mitteilen will.
