Description

A coming-of-age story about learning to celebrate yourself — and teaching the world to recognize you, too — perfect for fans of R. J. Palacio's Wonder!

"This glimpse into the world of a young autistic girl is astonishingly insightful and honest. Tally's struggles to 'fit in' are heart-wrenching, and her victories are glorious." — Ann M. Martin, Newbery Honor and New York Times bestselling author of Rain ReignThings Tally is dreading about sixth grade:— Being in classes without her best friends— New (scratchy) uniforms— Hiding her autismTally isn't ashamed of being autistic — even if it complicates life sometimes, it's part of who she is. But this is her first year at Kingswood Academy, and her best friend, Layla, is the only one who knows. And while a lot of other people are uncomfortable around Tally, Layla has never been one of them . . . until now.Something is different about sixth grade, and Tally now feels like she has to act "normal." But as Tally hides her true self, she starts to wonder what "normal" means after all and whether fitting in is really what matters most.Inspired by young coauthor Libby Scott's own experiences with autism, this is an honest and moving middle-school story of friends, family, and finding one's place.

        Starred review from January 20, 2020
        An autistic preteen struggles to navigate the demands of an allistic world in this powerful collaboration between Scott, an autistic 11-year-old, and established author Westcott, who is neurotypical. Funny, self-aware Tally is about to start sixth grade, and that means an overwhelming new school with lots of new people. To fit in, she chooses to keep her autism a secret, avoiding her usual coping mechanisms in order to fit in. Bullying and abandonment by her best friend ensue, but just when she can’t take it anymore, people close to Tally—including her sister and a teacher—learn to offer understanding and support in myriad ways. This is a sweetly appealing story of finding oneself in a time of change, and it’s heartening to see an autistic protagonist who finds happiness through the growth of those around her and not via learning to hide herself. Occasional first-person diary entries narrate Tally’s experiences, offering “Autism Facts” about anxiety, demand avoidance, meltdowns, and stimming, among other topics. Alongside a compelling heroine, vividly accurate portrayals of stressful situations and specific needs offer a rare and valuable window into one autistic point of view. Ages 8–12.

      • content: Narrator Bailey Carr delivers a captivating performance in this coming-of-age audiobook about a girl with autism who is starting middle school. Tally tries to be "normal" to fit in with her classmates, but masking her autism only makes her thoughts and sensory overload burst out in ways that make people uncomfortable. Carr connects seamlessly with Tally's apprehensions and outward expressions, guiding listeners through the joy and turmoil experienced with autism. Carr's youthful voice and high energy break up the moments of high drama as Tally navigates a new school year and finds herself, as well. The interspersed diary entries contributed by coauthor Libby Scott, a girl with autism, add authenticity to the story. A.K.R. © AudioFile 2020, Portland, Maine
