Description: Jay, a young boy with Asperger Syndrome, often feels out of place in the world around him, but doesn't know why. He doesn't understand why people call him names like "space cadet" and "asp-booger." He has looked up "asp" in the dictionary to help find the answer to his wonderings, but knows he is not a "small poisonous snake from Egypt." But what is he then? Caroline Levine's short novel follows Jay at school and home as he ponders these and other questions. In addition to independent reading, the book is great for use by teachers to promote an understanding of differences.
