All the Small Wonderful Things

Written by Kate Foster

Great for dog lovers! Nick is in 6th grade and loves dogs. He finds them much easier to understand than the people around him. He wants a friend and is sure that he will make one by running fast, winning a video game, or by winning a trophy. In the end, friendships develop on their own.

There is a lot of focus on being neurodivergent (autistic) and describing how the world feels to those with sensory needs. It is a very sweet story and the adults in the book are kind and understanding.
