Description
Severely autistic middle schooler Emerson Rayne’s words disappeared when she was fifteen months old, but that doesn’t mean she has no voice. As she navigates her day-to-day world of friendships, bullies, and over protective, over stressed parents, Emerson’s difficult but manageable frustrations turn to self-injurious behaviors and mental and emotional instability. Emerson’s parents fight to find her support and treatment in health and education systems that have little options for intensive needs teens.
