As she ventures into her teenage years everything in Miri’s world is changing. Secondary school means new teachers and new friends. Despite the support of her loving family, Miri, who’s autistic, finds the changes challenging. Things appear to be improving when Miri makes a new friend and experiences true friendship for the first time. She also discovers her talent for acting. But her new friendship and her urge to delve into the history of a local Victorian Asylum lead to challenges she hasn’t experienced before. But through overcoming these Miri learns to embrace her own unique self. A story full of adventure and emotion that reminds the reader that there’s more than one way to see and experience the world.
