(2) 4-6 Ten-year-old Lester (who has autism) is home-schooled until his astronaut father dies and his mother takes a full-time job. Lester finds a friend in public school classmate Abby--that is, until a new student steals Abby away. In this story of friendship, bullying, and community, Lester's literal perceptions are often different from what the adults (and readers) understand, providing insight into his character.
