About this audiobook
Being true to yourself shouldn’t mean fighting your school’s dress code. But for Liv, it’s a battle worth starting—and one he doesn’t plan on losing.
Funny, fierce, and full of heart, The Pants Project is a standout middle-grade novel about identity, bravery, and belonging. Liv may not be the world’s most obvious superhero, but when the system says “girls only wear skirts,” he knows it’s time to launch a mission: Operation Pants Project.
Perfect for fans of Melissa by Alex Gino and Gracefully Grayson, this story empowers kids to speak up, push boundaries, and celebrate who they are—one pair of pants at a time.
Liv isn’t asking to change the world. He’s just asking to wear pants. But when you’re standing up for who you are, even the smallest fight can feel revolutionary.
A must-read for ages 9–13 and a powerful resource for discussions on gender identity, bullying, school policy, and growing up brave.
