Publisher's Summary

Catherine, a 12-year-old girl with big responsibilities, loves her autistic younger brother David and makes lists of rules she thinks will help him get by. But she often feels that her parents, focused on special care for David, forget that she exists, too.

Rules, Cynthia Lord's Newbery and ALA Award-winning debut novel, is a tender look at the frustration, struggle, devotion, and hope experienced by families with autistic children.

what friendship really is

I first read this book years ago and have recommended it to so many people since. It is so well written and has so many layers to it and really speaks to what love is. Love and acceptance of family and friends and not being afraid to be your true self.
