The View from the Very Best House in Town by Meera Trehan

A witty, suspenseful and inventive debut that asks what makes a person a friend and a house a home. Sam and Asha. Asha and Sam.

Their friendship is so long established, they take it for granted. Just as Asha takes for granted that Donnybrooke, the mansion that sits on the highest hill in Coreville, is the best house in town. But when Sam is accepted into snobbish Castleton Academy as an autistic “Miracle Boy”, he leaves Asha, who is also autistic, to navigate middle school alone.
