Nothing Is Right

"Nothing is Right, is about an autistic boy's experiences in first grade. Set in the 1980s, it depicts the internal experience of a child who was not "impaired enough" to be diagnosed yet, but who nonetheless has real problems navigating his world. Clay goes into the first grade with no expectations other than those instilled in him by watching television and no friends. In the beginning, he's not sure whether he has no friends because his parents haven't let him make friends or because there's something wrong with him. He soon finds out that there might be nothing wrong with him, but that nothing is right either."--Author's website.
