Marcelo in the Real World is a touching story of a boy with a disorder similiar to autism who has been protected from the world by being placed in a school for people with disabilities. Marcelo's dad, who has always insisted that Marcelo has nothing wrong with him, demands that Marcelo come work for him at his law firm in the city for the summer. Against his wishes, Marcelo goes to work at the law firm where he learns what true friendship is, what being bullied means, and that maybe his dad isn't as perfect as Marcelo thought.
Marcelo in the Real World is a great read and definitely recommended!
