This book is for autistic people. You can share this book with
important people such as family and friends. The activities in this
book explore what it means to be autistic. It is full of fun
activities including colouring, drawing and DIY. The activities are
designed for autistic people and their friends and family to enjoy.
Some ideas might be useful to practice outside of the book in real
life, every day situations. There is also guidance for parents and
caregivers. This book was written by Haia Ironside. Haia recently
completed her master's degree in Autism Studies. She is also a
teacher and has extensive experience working with autistic children
and their families and caregivers.
A teenage girl stumbles out of an alley in Ottawa, concussed, with
no memory of her life. Fleeing sword-wielding operatives with
inexplicable mental abilities, she soon learns that her name is
Zoe, and that she not only possesses the same abilities, but is
extraordinarily skilled in martial arts. As she scours Toronto for
clues about her identity, she finds others like her, and is given
refuge at the Academy, an international school for Telepaths. As
fragments of her childhood return, she begins to suspect that she
may not like who she once was-that she may be part of a shadowy
organization more powerful than anyone suspects, and that she will
soon be swept up in events that are thousands of years in the
making.

Longlisted for the National Book Award for Young People's Literature!
From the New York Times and USA Today bestselling author of the Shatter Me series comes a powerful, heartrending contemporary novel about fear, first love, and the devastating impact of prejudice.
It’s 2002, a year after 9/11. It’s an extremely turbulent time politically, but especially so for someone like Shirin, a sixteen-year-old Muslim girl who’s tired of being stereotyped.
Shirin is never surprised by how horrible people can be. She’s tired of the rude stares, the degrading comments—even the physical violence—she endures as a result of her race, her religion, and the hijab she wears every day. So she’s built up protective walls and refuses to let anyone close enough to hurt her. Instead, she drowns her frustrations in music and spends her afternoons break-dancing with her brother.
But then she meets Ocean James. He’s the first person in forever who really seems to want to get to know Shirin. It terrifies her—they seem to come from two irreconcilable worlds—and Shirin has had her guard up for so long that she’s not sure she’ll ever be able to let it down.
