Differently normal

the long version

For Maddy, life is all about routine. It has to be, to keep her autistic sister happy and healthy. With just Maddy and her mother as Bee's full-time carers, there's no time in Maddy's life for complications like friends, let alone a boyfriend. Albert has resigned himself to always being a disappointment to his strict father, but Maddy gives him a glimpse of what being part of a functioning family can be like-- and of the tremendous sacrifices people will make for the ones they love. But some things, they are about to discover, are outside of their control. -- adapted from back cover.
