The Road We've Shared

Sam is a ninth grade girl trying to enjoy her first year of high school. Sam knows she has Down syndrome but she doesn’t feel different; even though other kids sometimes treat her that way. Sam’s new adventure involves a mini family reunion, exploring the interesting spaces of a retired military base and learning how hard it can be to “do the right thing”. Challenges and new mysteries are all chronicled in Sam’s private journal. In this book, Sam discovers that being yourself isn’t just about what people can see; sometimes what you can’t see is the most important part.
