A library board of trustees in North Carolina<\/a> has been dissolved after the board voted to keep a picture book about a transgender boy.\u00a0<\/p>\n

On Dec. 8, the Randolph County Commissioners voted 3-2<\/a> to remove the Randolph County Public Library\u2019s board of trustees.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The library\u2019s board voted 5-2 in October to keep “Call Me Max<\/u><\/a>,” a book about a transgender boy, on the shelves.<\/p>\n

Part of the book’s<\/a> second chapter reads, “On the first day of school, the teacher called out our names. \u2018Emory?\u2019 \u2018Here!\u2019 \u2018Stella?\u2019 \u2018Me!\u2019”<\/p>\n

“I raised my hand when she got to my name,” the child, who wants to be called “Max,” muses. “She looked at me. And then at the list of names. And then back at me again.”<\/p>\n

The child says, “I wondered if she thought my name didn\u2019t make sense for me. I felt that way too.”<\/p>\n

“Can you call me Max?” the child in the book asks. “Max is the boy in my favorite book. She nodded and wrote it down. (I won\u2019t tell you what my old name was. That\u2019s private.)”<\/p>\n

“Call Me Max” is authored by trans writer Kyle Lukoff, and the Amazon description<\/a> of the book calls it “a sweet and age-appropriate introduction to what it means to be transgender.”\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Randolph County Public Library and the Randolph County Commissioners did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital’s request for comment.\u00a0<\/p>\n
