With Help from My Sister follows Amanda as she tries to come to terms with the diagnosis of her older sister Katelyn, in the wake of her father’s recent death. Unsure of what to think and how to react, Amanda finds herself lying to every one around her, including her best friend Grace. Awful impressions of British accents, Shakespeare, and peach cobbler come together in this novel as hilarious misunderstandings occur and Amanda is forced to tell the truth, but not before she finds help and solace in the most surprising of places. Each book in the Mental Illness Awareness series will highlight and focus on a specific mental disorder. This series aims to help children who are dealing with mental illness find solace, comfort, and common ground in the struggles of the children within these stories.
