This should have been rated higher than three stars. I thought the author did a good job of describing and dealing with grief in this middle grade novel. I loved that the main character was a female aspie. Autism is under-diagnosed in women, so it was nice to see a break from the usual male characte...
I loved this little book! What an unexpected surprise.Mockingbird is told in the voice of Caitlin, a young girl with Aspergers, moving on with life after her brother is killed in a middle school shooting. She is working to understand her father's feelings, being accepted at school, and living life...
I guess I just don't Get It.So many people have recommended this book to me, and I finally got around to reading it, but I was pretty underwhelmed. It's not a bad book. Caitlin is an unusual protagonist, but I had a hard time believing this book.Caitlin is an eleven-year-old girl with Asperger's. Wh...

I confess, I am fascinated by stories about people with Autism, specifically Asperger's, as I spent over a decade of my life married to an Aspie.I think it's so great that parents and educators are so much more aware of this syndrome, and that there are many great opportunities for early interventio...
The best thing about this book for me was that it managed to deal with two very tough subjects and yet still feel like a light fluffy read. Caitlin's view of the world was unique and compelling; I found myself devouring the whole story within a couple of hours as I couldn't put it down!The story is ...
To say that Caitlin has a tough life is an understatement. Her brother, Devon, was murdered at a shooting spree in the middle school, her mother died when she was an infant and did I mention that she has Asperger's Syndrome and has no friends? This heartwarming story, told in Caitlin's voice, foll...
I was interested in this book after I read that the girl had Asperger's Syndrome. While Caitlin's syndrome is severe, I can understand how reading people and fitting in are two things I have never been successful in. The story goes deeper into linking someone who does not understand emotions and f...
IF this little girl can overcome her fear and push past her comfort zone and have asperger's at the same time. How can it be so hard for the rest of us?? I learned alot from this little girl.
