This was an excellent book! I have to admit, it started off a little slow and I wasn't sure I was going to like it. But as the book moved forward I began to feel the depth of emotions of the family in the book. The author did an excellent job of describing some of the conflict a child might feel in relation to having a sibling with Autism. Overall, a cute story about a boy with a mentally handicapped older sister. I highly recommend this book! Especially to children seeking to better understand mental illness.
