Anything But Typical by Nora Raleigh Baskin

Jason Blake, age 12, isn't like most kids.  Jason has autism.  His senses work overtime and he has a difficult time communicating.  However, Jason loves computers and he enjoys writing stories.  When he is writing, he feels like he can connect with the world.  When he posts his story to a website called StoryBoard, he connects with PhoneixBird (Rebecca) and wonders if he has found his first true friend.  The only problem is that he is terrified to meet her at the StoryBoard convention.  Will she accept him for who he is?  Anything But Typical is on the 2013 Rebecca Caudill list.
