Seriously Weird

Gene Kemp2003
Troy is a boy living in a secret locked-up world. His family think he is crazy, mad, nutty, barmy - all except his mother, who prefers to pretend there's nothing really wrong. Even she has to take a bit of notice when policemen start knocking on doors and Troy gets excluded from school. It takes Mrs Shepherd the science teacher, and a chocolate bean competition, for those around him to realise that Troy's view of life may be odd - but in its own way remarkably brilliant. This exceptional book is about a boy who has Asperger's Syndrome - but it is equally about how families and the outside world respond to people who see things differently.
