AbstractHistoryArchive Description
Erica takes her autistic son, Joel, to a special needs school for the first time. She mostly raises him alone; Joel's father, Ben, is mostly absent. Erica worries that Joel won't like the school, since he rarely likes social contact, but he surprisingly gets along with the teacher and with another autistic girl in the small class.
