Beschreibung
Fifteen and suffocating in her sister's shadow, Mary Weber struggles to claim her own identity-and the attention of a guy at school. No matter what she does or where she goes, Mary never feels she measures up to her older sister's legacy.
Ben Thomas, a seventeen-year-old neighbor on the autism spectrum, crosses paths with Mary. He fights against the weight of his rigid lifestyle because he doesn't want his sensory issues to block their road to friendship.
An unlikely relationship forges between someone hiding from the world and another seeking to find her place in it. Will Ben and Mary discover what it takes to strengthen their lives that have been corroding around them?
Corroded is a contemporary teen novel with a classic coming-of-age theme relevant to those both on and off the autism spectrum. With a dual point-of-view story line, readers will experience the neurotypical life of Mary as she navigates public high school, friendship trouble, and family drama, plus feel the inner-workings of homeschooling Ben as he deals with sensory and other issues relating to his Autism Spectrum Disorder.
