Henry and the Something New cover

“Relatable characters, familiar scenarios, and gentle humor make this a remarkably satisfying read.”Horn Book Magazine, Starred Review 

The second book in the acclaimed series is now in paperback! From the creators of the Schneider Award-winning books A Friend for Henry and Henry, Like Always, this delightful beginning chapter book about embracing new experiences stars a sweet and sensitive child on the autism spectrum.

 

It’s Field Trip Day! Henry's class is excited to visit the museum, but Henry is not so sure. The museum means maybe seeing dinosaurs, Henry's favorite. But it also means a lot of things that are new: a noisy school bus ride, a building full of echoes and hallways, and plenty of chances to get lost! Will he find something that makes all of this new worth the trip? Come along with Henry in this funny, bighearted tale about trying new things, exploring new places, and finding the courage to make yourself heard.
