How Cathrine Made Communication Cards

Catherine is a 12 year old girl who wants a regular life. But she has to take care of her younger brother David. David doesn’t know how to follow many rules. Instead Catherine makes specific rules for him to follow. She just doesn’t have to make rules for him to follow, but she also has to teach him how to act around people and in public.
On the first day of summer Catherine realizes there were moving trucks at her neighbors house. When she met her new neighbor’s Kristi she was very pleased and made great friends with her. A few days later she met a guy named Jason that goes to the same clinic David goes to. Jason doesn’t know how to talk so Cathrine made communication cards for him. She was excited to make the cards because she loves drawing.
Catherine and Kristi went to the lake and Catherine figured out that Kristie and Ryan were going to the dance together. Kristi then asked Catherine to go with them, but she didn’t want to because Kristi didn’t know that Jason was in a wheelchair and can’t speak. She also figured out an excuse not to go because Jason’s birthday party was on the same day. At Jason’s birthday party he surprised Catherine and asked her to go to the dance. Catherine was so shocked and said yes and had the bravery to bring Jason and introduce him to Kristi even though she didn’t want to. When they are at the dance Catherine was telling her dad how she needs to get more attention and not just focus on David all the time. Then at the dance when Catherine was introducing Jason to Kristi she got mad and said how she was a liar because she didn’t tell her the truth about Jason. Catherine just ignored her and moved on and she also had a great time dancing with Jason and talking with him.
