A Kind of Spark by Elle McNicoll

What a phenomenal book! Addie's story was awe inspiring and heart felt. I really appreciated the own voices (from the author) perspective on autism and how it is viewed in the schools and through adulthood as well. This is just such a poignant story for our time about acceptance and support and how we can lift others up instead of tearing them down. It is also a book about how we can learn from our past mistakes individually and as a society. All the stars to this one. I will most definitely be having my own kids read it as well.
