Lauren's now a third 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 difficult. Lauren’s not feeling brave at all when she’s faced some alarming challenges: her best friend Irma wants Lauren to accept her new friend who is a loud litter-dropper, and her teacher just announced a class-wide mountain-biking day. But Lauren is still using training wheels and she knows she’s going to get teased. With straightforward text and black & white illustrations, Duck Days gives insight into how a young person with ASD navigates her world. 104 pages, softcover. Ages 7 to 10.
