This was a really funny and cool book. Very heart-warming.
It is funny, it is sad, and happy! It makes me emotional.
I love this book it is a great book if you haven't read this book you should read it.
I didn't like it because she had to pick between 2 friends because one has a health problem. Why couldn't she tell her neighbor?
I thought the book was really funny. I have an autistic cousin so I really liked it.
I think this book is very good and has lots of rules that you can learn from.
This book was a lesson for me, it also made me cry!
Ist was a very good book. But, I like action, scary, funny, and fun books. It was ok.
It was awesome because Catherine teaches David rules. Catherine meets new friends Jason and Katie.
I remember when the fourth and fifth graders went to the library and the author of this book was there. It was amazing!!!
It is about good friends. I think it is great that the girl helped her autistic brother.
I didn't really like this book. It was kind of boring.
It was so boring! The beginning didn't make sense, neither did the whole book.
It was only about a boy who doesn't have manners. Then his sister teaches him rules.
This book isn't that adventurous. It only talks about her brother's problem & rules.
I thought this book was very inspiring and I wish more people would help autistic kids in that way! I love working with kids that have autism. I loved it!
I gave Rules 3 stars. I thought it helped tell people how it feels to live with someone who has autism. It was a little weird, too, though.
I like the whole idea of the book. It also kept me wanting to read it.
I gave Rules 5 stars because it's a cool book.
I gave this book 5 stars because there were a hundred questions I wanted answers to after I read the book. I wanted to know things like what things David did in OT. These questions made me keep reading. Some parts of the book were emotional, I think emotion is hard to write. I really like books from kid's perspectives. I would recommend this book to anyone.
I really liked this book. It was cool how Katherine was friends with Jason even though he was disabled.
I couldn't put it down. I liked it so much I have a copy now!
I gave it 5 stars. It was the best book you could ever find. I cried, I laughed, and I was filled with so many emotions.
This book included a handicapped person which is very different. I like how they put a lot of handicapped people in it because we're not all the same! I gave it 4 stars.
I gave it 2 stars because it was so boring. I don't see how some people like it.
This book was good. It was kind of sad. I give it 4 stars.
I liked that the main character in the story helped Jason. I love that she is patient and cares a lot for her brother even though he sometimes acts weird in front of Catherine's friends because he is autistic. I gave it 3 stars.
