Synopsis

Some kids learn early how to be the easy one.

When a brother or sister needs extra medical care, supervision, appointments, or support, the other child can become the kid who adjusts, helps, waits, and says they're fine - even when they aren't.

Nobody Asks If I'm Okay is an illustrated collection of fifteen fictional stories for middle-grade readers about siblings living alongside disability, chronic illness, mental-health challenges, and complex family needs. The stories make room for the feelings children are often told not to have: jealousy, anger, embarrassment, relief, worry, pride, love, and the wish for a life of their own.

Maya, first introduced in SEEN, returns at eleven as she learns that being noticed once is not the same as learning to tell the truth about what she needs.

Warm, funny, and honest, this story collection is for siblings who love their families deeply - and still deserve room to be kids.
