This would be a fabulous book to read in school. Great for most primary levels. Loved the illustrations!

My 7 year old loved this story and has been inspired to write her own book about growing up with an autistic brother

A lovely detailed description by a sister of her brother Evan who is 7 and nonverbal. Sarah writes about Evan’s differences such as how he likes to tap sticks, swing high, take baths and eat frozen pops and crunchy things. She speaks candidly about the challenges of living with Evan and her thoughts about why he does things. Overall she is really positive about her brother and the joys he brings to her life. 5 stars
