Kristy and the Secret of Susan | Ann M. Martin

1 post | 6 read | 1 to read

Kristy's newest baby-sitting charge is Susan Felder, who goes away to a special school. Susan isn't like most kids. While she can play the piano and sing beautifully... she can't talk to anyone. Susan is autistic. She lives locked inside her own secret world.Kristy thinks it's unfair that Susan has to be sent off to school and is treated differently from everyone else. But Kristy's going to try to change that--by showing everyone that Susan's a 'regular' kid, too. And then maybe Kristy's new friend can stay in Stoneybrook for good.

I liked this one. This series has been trying to tackle all sorts of issues a child can have and autism is no exception. I think the subject was handled pretty well. Kristy initially thinks she knows what‘s best for Susan, but ends up realizing what she thinks is best isn‘t what‘s best for Susan

LiteraryinLawrence I remember this one! I read a lot of BSC books back in the day. I bet that the way autism is described might not jive with how we talk about it now. (edited) 6y
