Praise

“Exceptionally well-done…Robinson’s prose is conversational and seemingly light, yet it will leave readers with plenty of substance to ponder…A superb middle grade memoir that champions empathy and understanding on every level.”—BookPage, starred review

“An accessible and immersive account of growing up with strabismus, a condition of eye misalignment…Robinson presents a sincere reflection on childhood experiences of growing up in a world not built with him in mind.”—Publishers Weekly, starred review

“This lively, interactive…heartfelt memoir is truly eye-opening and will encourage readers to seek out his other works.”—Booklist, starred review

“A game-changing curriculum add for any teacher looking to motivate creatives in their classroom.”—The Bulletin of the Center for Children’s Books, starred review

“With Rea’s affecting and mesmerizing line drawings, this is an important book for all readers.” —School Library Journal, starred review

“A beautiful, important, creative, and insightful look at overcoming adversity, finding one’s path, and ultimately creating better—genuine—human connections. I absolutely loved it.”—Rob Harrell, author of Wink

“Affirming visually disabled people and enabling nondisabled people to better understand Robinson—and themselves. Robinson…candidly explores numerous topics, including disability tropes, privilege, and ways to turn ‘out-trigue’—the discomfort we feel with the unfamiliar—into empathetic connections…Frank, unusual, and insightful.”—Kirkus
