Frankie knows she's not like anyone else in her class: she's

different, but she can't quite figure out why. Is

it the new freckle on her nose, or the fact she's small for

her age? Or that she has to go to the hospital sometimes? Everyone

else seems to think she's weird too, and they make fun

of her at school.

Frankie's dad left when she was a baby - maybe he

was different too? It would explain why she always feels like an

alien. So she and her best-friend Sam, embark on a mission to track

him down.

A graphic novel offering a unique perspective on Autism,

told with humour and heart.

Brought to life with glorious colour artwork in a distinctive

blue and orange palette.

Perfect for fans of Raina Telgemeier.
