Lauren's a second grader who sees the world a little differently than the other kids at school. She's on the Autism Spectrum, so even though she has her routines and coping mechanisms that help her stay comfortable and manage her anxiety, some days and experiences are just a little more challenging. On “slug days” Lauren feels slow and icky, like everyone yells at her and that she has no friends. But on “butterfly days” she makes her friends laugh and does something special with her mom. Lauren’s personal perspective even helps her relate to Irma, a new student at school. With straightforward text and black & white illustrations, Slug Days gives insight into how a young person with ASD navigates her world. 120 pages, softcover. Ages 7 to 10.
