Buried Alive: Blue (Launch Day) Edition (Digital)

This product is set to release on June 5, 2026. It is not available for pre-order.

This is a story that Slade Watkins has never had the ability to tell anyone: until now. From being gay and closeted, all the way to the target of relentless bullying (from children and adults alike), Slade really struggled to fit into a world that wasn't built for people like him. (He still does, actually!) In Buried Alive, he recounts his experiences in elementary school -- both good and bad -- with pride, honesty, and a bit of humor. Buckle up, because this one's a bit of a rollercoaster!
