Reviews
"This is a picture book that gently and deftly captures what it's like for an autistic child to make friends in a new classroom. It's a book that listens to them." - Kirkus Reviews
"As diagnosed children on the autistic spectrum increase, so does the need for informative and positive presentations such as this." --Booklist
"Whether on the spectrum or not, friends don't have to share everything, just enough, and this book sweetly provides." --Kirkus Reviews
"With sensitivity and thoughtfulness, Bailey explores Henry's literal-minded, analytical personality... her portrayal of what autism might feel like from the inside rings true." --Publishers Weekly
"A simple, upbeat story that might inspire readers to seek out friendship." --School Library Journal
