Award-winning author Elle McNicoll returns with a heartfelt and timely story for readers aged 8+
“We love Elle McNicoll's writing and the representation of young neurodivergent people in her books. Fans of A Kind of Spark will be thrilled that she's writing for this age group again and ready to get to know Aeriel Sharpe and the challenges she faces. It's an understatement to say that we're excited about this one!”~Emily
Aeriel Sharpe doesn’t want to be anyone’s role model. But, when her mother is elected to be the most important politician in the country (yes, that one), she is thrust into the spotlight. With the world’s eyes on her, friends don’t seem that friendly and she feels trapped by everyone’s expectations.
They want her to be the voice of every autistic teenager, but Aeriel must find a way to speak for herself…
Elle McNicoll is a bestselling and award-winning novelist. Her debut, A Kind of Spark, won the Blue Peter Book Award and the Waterstones Children’s Book Prize, as well as Blackwell’s Book of 2020. She is a three time Carnegie nominated author and was also honoured in the US with the Schneider Award, 2022.
