Rules

Rules, Cynthia Lord¿s Newbery and ALA Award-winning debut novel, is a tender look at the frustration, struggle, devotion, and hope experienced by families with autistic children. Catherine, a 12-year-old girl with big responsibilities, loves her autistic younger brother David and makes lists of rules she thinks will help him get by. But she often feels that her parents, focused on special care for David, forget that she exists, too.

¿... this sensitive story is about being different, feeling different, and finding acceptance.¿¿School Library Journal
