c2003. By Mark Haddon. This widely acclaimed and bestselling novel is narrated by 15-year-old Christopher Boone, a teenager with high-functioning autism (HFA). Christopher's literal-minded descriptions immediately transport the reader into the mind of a person on the autism spectrum, as he tells the story of how he tries to solve the mystery of the murder of his neighbor's dog. Since Christopher does not understand human emotions, social interactions have little meaning for him. However, this is a story that explores the very nature of human interaction, as the answers to questions in Christopher's own life are ultimately revealed. For adolescents and adults. (Softcover; 226 pages.)
