REVIEWS
A book that made me think!
By Ethan Johnson (31 May, 2024 )

This is a super interesting book about a boy, who is 15, been diagnosed with autism and who also loves math. He finds his neighbor's dog dead and decides to solve the mystery. I really liked the way how he uses drawings and charts to explain his thoughts. The book does have a lot of surprises, and is a great learning about autism.
