Patrick the Somnambulist
By Sarah Ackerley
Patrick is a normal penguin who sometimes finds himself in odd situations. His parents think he’s kind of weird, but since when is being normal such a good thing? Patrick surprises everyone with his not-at-all normal adventures, and becomes the talk of the penguin community — all while proudly wearing a plunger on his head.

Life in the Pit
By Kristen Landon
Plain, normal Amanda has always lived in the shadow of her beautiful, popular friend Brittany. Brittany has a new boyfriend every week; Amanda doesn’t date. Brittany is the star of the school musical; Amanda watches from behind her cello in the orchestra pit. But then, the hot lead in the play starts showing an interest in Amanda — and not because she’s Brittany’s best friend. At the same time, Amanda and Brittany both get threatening anonymous letters. Amanda doesn’t know what to do: a guy likes her, and she and Brittany are in danger. Has the world gone insane?

Knowing Joseph
By Judy Mammay
Brian would give anything to have a normal six-year-old brother — one who doesn’t scream that normal sounds are too loud, or a brother who would play with other kids. Instead, he has Joseph, his autistic brother.
Life with Joseph isn’t easy. Brian constantly finds himself defending Joseph from kids that understand Joseph even less than Brian does. It takes a new friend and a school project before Brian can begin to know Joseph.
