Rules by Cynthia Lord




NO TOYS IN THE FISH TANK.

A lovely book which teaches us that each person is special.It's about twelve-year old Catherine who just wants a normal life. But it's near impossible as her family revolves around her younger brother David who suffers from autism. 
She's spent years teaching David that 'a peach is not a funny looking apple', 'keep your pants on in public' and 'no toys in fish tank'.
The story is based on relationship between Catherine and David - and how it gets effected by her friendship with Jason and Kristie. Jason cannot speak and walk. Kristie is a new neighbour who is friends with the boy who teases David.

3.5 stars out of 5 for this book
