Is there a boy like me?

Carter, Kern,

His high-achieving parents think he’s a genius coder and are pushing him to pursue that as a future career. None of this is true. London feels anxiety in crowds, and what he really wants to do is be by himself and read books. He dreams of being a best-selling author like his idols, but no one knows that except for Naya, his best friend and next-door neighbour, who all the kids at school think is London’s girlfriend. Not knowing what else to do, London starts an anonymous online comic called "Is There A Boy Like Me" where he expresses his true feelings and explores what his life would be like if he could just be who he wanted to be. When the comic goes viral, it starts a global conversation about what being a boy really means, with London directly in the middle of it all.
