by Ashley Edward Miller and Zack Stentz
Colin has Asperger's and as such doesn't have many friends in school as they see him as some sort of freak to taunt. Because of his inability to detect emotion in other people's faces, he carries around a cheat sheet with drawings of faces with different expressions with the emotion written underneath. However, Colin has a great aptitude for maths and deduction of facts. When a gun goes off in the school cafeteria, he immediately becomes like one of his ultimate superheroes, Sherlock Holmes, and processes the evidence and facts to deduce who the real culprit is.
A great story of acceptance, family and friendship. If you like this, you may also like Wonder by R.J. Palacio and The Case of the Deadly Desperados by Caroline Lawrence.
