Tally is autistic and proud. She used to feel like she had to hide
her autism, but now Tally is determined to make sure people see who
she really is. But now Tally has a new worry - her school trip. And
that means new places, new people and new challenges. She quickly
falls in with the popular girls and is grateful that they don't
make a big deal about her autism, but it's not long before Tally
realises that, while the girls are popular, they aren't very kind.
With a jolt Tally understands that she's not the only one who's

You See Me? and Do You Know Me? this standout prequel follows Tally
through her autism diagnosis in her final year of primary school.
Ten-year-old Tally had high hopes for Year 6. Being in the top
class at school means a whole host of privileges, but even better
than that is the school production - and Tally is convinced she'll
win the lead role. But at home, things aren't going so well. Mum
and Dad have been making Tally feel pressured and upset, and Tally
wishes things didn't bother her so much - but they do, and
sometimes she feels so misunderstood and frustrated, she could
explode. Then Tally's mum and dad tell her about something she's
never heard about before. Something called autism. And everything
changes. The third book written in collaboration with Libby Scott

With diary entries written by eleven-year-old Libby Scott, based on
her own experiences of autism, this pioneering book, written in
collaboration with esteemed author Rebecca Westcott, has been
widely praised for its realistic portrayal of autism. Tally is
eleven years old and she's just like her friends. Well, sometimes
she is. If she tries really hard to be. Because there's something
that makes Tally not the same as her friends. Something she can't
cover up, no matter how hard she tries: Tally is autistic. Tally's
autism means there are things that bother her even though she
wishes they didn't. It means that some people misunderstand, her
and feel frustrated by her. People think that because Tally's
autistic, she doesn't realise what they're thinking, but Tally sees
and hears - and notices - all of it. And, honestly? That's not the
easiest thing to live with. The first book written in collaboration
