In this charming picture book, eight-year-old Sarah Peralta demystifies autism by giving us insights into the world of her younger brother, who is nonverbal. While Evan may not be interesting in play dates like Sarah is, he loves to jump on his bed, twirl sticks, swim and munch potato chips. Through her simple depictions of Evan's everyday behavior, Sarah encourages others to approach autism without fear or pity. The effects of her book will live long beyond the last pages, as Sarah invites her young readers to share ideas for how to live with siblings or classmates who have autism spectrum disorders.

Sarah Peralta lives in Massachusetts with her family. Sarah aspires to become the first woman president of the United States. She is also an active advocate for her brother and other children in her community who are on the autism spectrum.
