Recenzii
A tear-jerker about family that shows us things that are important and true, and promotes compassion.
The struggles of those with autism and those who love them in a book with an achingly huggable main character
This sensitive, heartbreaking story boasts a wonderful narrative voice and secret codes that add another layer of intrigue
A brave and beautiful book with a big heart. I loved it.
This is a moving, absorbing novel about a pair of brothers - one is autistic, one is not, and I came to love both of them
What Balen captures in Frank's voice is the authentic experience of being ten and facing up to all the difficulties that brings. His story, and that of his family, will live long in the hearts and minds of its readers
Invigorating, enlightening and exciting are the only words that describe the opening chapters of The Space We're In, as 10-year-old wild boy Frank and his (yep, you guessed it) autistic brother, Max, prepare for their first day back to school
A truly extraordinary book ... It packs a pretty powerful punch but is a beautifully written and ultimately uplifting story with stunning artwork. Warning: you will need tissues
Laura Carlin's monochrome illustrations combine artistic skill with a childlike element that complements the text
Stunningly beautiful, I cried and smiled my way through this book in turns [.] Katya Balen has captured the sense of wanting to be grown up, but still being a child perfectly.
Now and then, and only now and then, a book changes us. The Space We're In does that. It's ferocious and it's visionary.
