Dear Mothman

by Robin Gow

After losing his best friend, young trans boy Noah finds solace by writing letters to his favorite cryptid, the Mothman. Through verse, Gow crafts a moving story about grief, identity, and finding belonging in unexpected places. The Mothman becomes both metaphor and confidant as Noah navigates loss and self-discovery.
