Synopsis
In this sequel to Can You See Me?, Libby Scott and Rebecca Westcott return with another heartwarming and eye-opening story of friendship and middle school, inspired by Libby's own experiences of autism.
Everyone else in Tally's grade seems excited for their class trip... And she knows she is supposed to be too. Ever since her classmates found out she is autistic, Tally has felt more comfortable being herself. But the end-of-year trip will be an entire week -- her longest overnight trip ever. How will she sleep? What about all the bugs? What will her dog, Rupert, do without her at home?
Though she decides she doesn't want to miss out, bad news strikes as soon as she arrives: She isn't bunking with her friend Aleksandra. Instead, she is rooming with her former friends and two girls from a neighboring school -- who both reject Tally on day one.
Tally isn't sure she'll ever make new friends. And how will she survive for so long away from home?
Told through a mix of prose and diary entries, this authentic and relatable novel is about finding your people, and learning what it takes to be a true friend.

Reviews
Gr 4–6—The follow-up novel to Can You See Me? continues the story of Tally Adams, sixth grader extraordinaire. Tally has many parts of being an almost-12-year-old autistic kid figured out. Chapters written in the third person explain Tally's life and her days at home and school. Between chapters, readers get insight into Tally's personal thoughts through journal entries. Tally and her class are wrapping up the school year (one that was evidently fraught with the oh-so-normal change of best friends) by attending GoCamp for a week. This is no small task for a girl who is managing her anxiety on a day-to-day, and sometimes minute-by-minute, basis. Tally's parents and teachers assure her she will be fine at camp and can handle this, despite all of her fears. At camp, things get off to a rocky start, complete with mean girls and bullying. Fortunately, Tally perseveres and finds she has more friends than she realized and has gained a few more along the way. Tally, who is white, is very self aware and conscious of her autism; the lists she includes in her journal entries of how she would like teachers and friends to treat her are fantastic recommendations for anyone. VERDICT A great fit for any middle grade collection, particularly those wanting to showcase how differences can help people connect with one another. Hand to readers who enjoyed Cynthia Lord's Rules or Holly Goldberg Sloan's Counting by 7s.—Kim Gardner, Fort Worth Country Day Sch., TX
