I highly enjoyed this book. It was a great read. Another book you might be interested in is Rules by Cynthia Lord (juvenile fiction). It is about a girl who has a autistic little brother and recounts the rules she makes for him to avoid any embarrassing mishaps.
I read this book last year and loved it! I'm glad you enjoyed it too! I enjoyed your selection of quotes. Diane
