Everything is complicated for 12-year old Catherine. She loves her younger brother David, but he’s autistic which means he just doesn’t understand some things and he’s always embarrassing Catherine somehow. The new girl should be the perfect next-door friend Catherine’s always wanted (next door means David doesn’t have to come too), but she seems to have so much more in common with Jason, a wheelchair-bound boy she met at her brother’s therapy clinic, who can only communicate by pointing at speech cards. While Catherine understands that her parents struggle to keep up with David’s needs, she needs them too, but how can she ask them to spend time with her, when she knows David needs them so much more? To help both herself and David figure out some of these confusing things, Catherine keeps track of rules. Some are the rules that David lives by like, “If you don’t have the words you need, borrow someone else’s. If you need to borrow words, Arnold Lobel wrote some good ones.” Some are Catherine’s rules for things David can’t figure out on his own like, “Keep you pants on! Unless Mom, Dad or the doctor tells you to take them off.” But some are just Catherine’s rules for herself like, “Pantless brothers are not my problem.” The story of Catherine’s summer is funny, heartbreaking, thought-provoking and one you’ll never forget. Realistically imperfect characters are the best part of this book. Catherine and David's parents are clearly good parents dealing with a difficult situation, but they also clearly have somewhat benignly neglected Catherine - which even if it's done by necessity makes your heart break for overlooked Catherine. Catherine herself is far from perfect and struggles throughout the book with making good decisions. Jason and his mother are equally well-developedCynthia Lord is the mother of an autistic child herself and the story is grounded in what seem to be realistic details. Definitely worthy of the Newbery honor and yet still appealing to kids. Read for Cover to Cover Book Group in February 2013. Read for Cover to Cover Book Group in May 2009. Previously read September 1, 2007.
