Book-Talk : Just Lizzie, by Karen Wilfrid



Through her scientific exploration of reproduction in plants, 14-year-old Lizzie gains new insights into herself and her place in society. Reading Just Lizzie by Karen Wilfrid, I found so much to appreciate: among them a beautiful expression for the interconnectedness of life. The book also offers much-needed representation for asexuality. As a reader on the autism spectrum, I do have one wishful question. Is it possible that Lizzie is autistic? My appreciation to the publisher and to NetGalley for an advance digital copy of this book, which will be published in November 2023.
