good idea for children to share Chewies!

Twelve-year-old Catherine just wants a
normal life. Which is near impossible
when you have a brother with autism
and a family that revolves around his
disability. She's spent years trying to
teach David the rules from "a peach is
not a funny-looking apple" to "keep
your pants on in public"---in order to
head off David's embarrassing
behaviors.

But the summer Catherine meets
Jason, a surprising, new sort-of friend,
and Kristi, the next-door friend she's
always wished for, it's her own shocking
behavior that turns everything upside
down and forces her to ask: What is
normal?
RULES By Cynthia Lord
Paperback $6.99
Hardback $12.79
Marcelo Sandoval hears music no one
else can hear--part of the autism-like
impairment no doctor has been able to
identify--and he's always attended a
special school where his differences
have been protected. But the summer
after his junior year, his father
demands that Marcelo work in his law
firm's mailroom in order to experience
"the real world." There Marcelo meets
Jasmine, his beautiful and surprising
coworker, and Wendell, the son of
another partner in the firm. He learns
about competition and jealousy, anger
and desire. But it's a picture he finds in
a file -- a picture of a girl with half a
face -- that truly connects him with the
real world: its suffering, its injustice,
and what he can do to fight.
Reminiscent of "The Curious Incident
of the Dog in the Night-Time" in the
intensity and purity of its voice, this
extraordinary novel is a love story, a
legal drama, and a celebration of the
music each of us hears inside.
