About this listen

Willem has Asperger’s Syndrome and two main aims in life: to fly and to make at least two friends of his own age. As he stands on the edge of a wall, Sasha gives him a wink. Might she become his friend? As he flies through the air he wishes he could fly and escape. Instead he comes crashing down and breaks his ankle. Sasha is determined to put things right.

We really enjoyed this book. The main characters Sasha and Willem had relateable and endearing personalities. The story of these 2 is one that most young people would be able to follow and relate to and enjoy!

A beautiful story woven with life lessons
