ALT Image is a body of text. The text reads: "Richards’s writing is engaging and never preachy, making points about gender expression and identity that fit naturally within the adventure. Armstrong identifies as Bill when wearing “pantaloons,” but otherwise still goes by their birth name of Maggie. It is easy to see Armstrong as an inspiring model for teenagers that don’t want to conform to gender roles – Maggie/Bill is the type of person who will fight bullies but also muse poetically about nature, and still have time to chat kindly with children onboard the ship. When Bill boards the ship for its long journey, they “didn’t feel homesick…he’d never felt more at home than he did at that moment.” So while this isn’t a happy story, it does emphasize Armstrong’s bravery, kindness, and freedom."
