Bernie Thinks in Boxes

Bernie thinks in boxes. She has boxes for everything: for home, for school and even for the park. Bernie likes boxes. When things fit into boxes, they make sense.

But one day, Bernie's boxes collide, and she must find a way to make sense of her world again.

A beautiful story about thinking differently and navigating change in a neurotypical world.
