Meet Alfred, a neurodivergent 14-year-old teenage boy whose world is comprised of his mom, his favorite Soho Glob cookies, a Ninja named Naruto, baseball stats, and chess. Alfred has difficulty making friends until his mom decides it's time to change things up and hires Coach.

Coach uses Alfred’s passions to help guide him. Among Alfred’s many lessons, he learns:

Not to be a know-betterer
How to use humor to spread cheer
Why it's important to hear people’s unspoken words
Ways to be generous that matter most
How dogs simply make the world better

New characters emerge in this quirky tale, and because nothing is a straight shot, Alfred has some setbacks as he revisits family history and learns about the dad he never knew.

Parents, coaches, teachers, mentors—anyone engaged in helping adolescents grow—will find some useful entry points for conversation, done with a lightness of touch.
