Nicholas, an autistic boy has the most amazing imagination. He is a wonderful reader, reading is his greatest talent. Sometimes he wonders why he isn’t like everyone else, why he can’t do what everyone else can do and why he was picked to be so “special.” Luckily he has a wonderful teacher in his life named Evelyn. She doesn’t have any children of her own but she treats all of the students she teaches as if they were her own. Through his favorite book we are able to see the world how Nicholas sees it. The good things and the bad and even the reasons that he sees himself the way that he does. This is a comedic, high energy multi-character piece with a great amount of heart and a warm and necessary message. We are all made to be different, but all to be loved.
