How do you have a normal life when your younger brother is autistic and family life revolves around him? Catherine specifically wants a chance to make friends without David’s interference.

I read it because like many other books because of the description on the book jacket. I would say second grade to fourth grade and two thumbs up.

Somethings I read because of the jacket, too. Sometimes I like the name or the author or have at least have heard of the author. Sometimes I go by someone else’s recommendation.
