内容简介

Jay often feels out of place in the world around him, but doesn?t know why.Being called names like ?space cadet?and ?asp-booger?confuses him even further.He has looked up ?asp?in the dictionary and knows he is not an asp, a ?small poisonous snake from Egypt.?But what is he then? Caroline Anne Levine's short novel, Jay Grows an Alien, follows Jay, a young boy with Asperger Syndrome, at school and home.Over the course of the novel, as he deals with bullies, faces the difficulties of a sibling relationship, and befriends a cyborg from outer space, Jay begins to find his place and comes to understand that differences in him and others are unique and special.
