Alternating the perspectives of autistic teen Charlie and his typically developing twin, Callie, this book highlights the complexities of life on the spectrum. While the narratives strain for teenage authenticity, the siblings' struggles (and also their love for each other) ring true. A follow-up to the picture book My Brother Charlie, this novel is also based on the Peete family. Websites.
