I loved this book. Which is a surprise because it is WEIRD. 

But it's really engrossingly written and the it has all this interesting commentary about disability and eugenics and also about fear. 

Also wasps are SCARY. 

Would 100% reccommend not just got middle grade readers, but adults as well! Especially scary as the parent of a young child.
