Ten-year-old Caitlin, who has Asperger’s Syndrome, struggles to understand emotions, show empathy, and make friends at school, while at home she seeks closure by working on a project with her father.

Liz says:

As Caitlyn struggles to deal with the tragic death of her older brother, she must face her own difficulties of understanding the world and relating to others. Ultimately, Caitlyn learns the true meaning of closure and empathy as she connects, in her own way, to her family, friends and community. This is a beautiful, sensitive story; a little gem.
