Amira in Pieces

By Lucinda Ireland

By Year 8, Amira thinks she should have had life all figured out, but everything is seriously confusing and she's always getting in trouble - both at home and at school. Fortunately, she's always found comfort in colours; in the way they fill the canvas when she paints, the way they swirl around her thoughts, and the way the gentle tones of her scarves feel like a filter between her and a confronting world.When painting is taken away and a teacher insists on taking her scarves too, her inner chaos becomes overwhelming.Can Amira learn to truly understand herself before her entire world falls apart?- Captivating, heartfelt, and insightful; Amira in Pieces vividly explores Amira's daily struggle as she tries to be a good daughter, a good student and a good friend while navigating her individual journey towards learning that she has aspergers.
