Non-Verbal by Molly Zenk – Review by Shadel Ayerbe
Non Verbal by Molly Zenk
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Nonverbal by Molly Zenk a young adult and family oriented book
Severely autistic middle schooler Emerson Rayne’s words disappeared when she was fifteen months old, but that doesn’t mean she has no voice. As she navigates her day-to-day world of friendships, bullies, and overprotective, over stressed parents, Emerson’s difficult but manageable frustrations turn to self-injurious behaviors and mental and emotional instability.
Emerson’s parents fight to find her support and treatment in health and
education systems that have little options for intensive needs teens. Inspired by a true story.
Every page was exciting and I couldn’t wait to see what would happen. It brings a very new perspective in your life and I couldn’t put the book down.
