Insignificant Events in the Life of a Cactus
by Dusti Bowling (Sterling, 2017); audiobook read by Karissa Vacker (Tantor, 2019)
A vibrant tween novel that makes disability an inherent part of its narrative yet never allows it to define the characters. The mystery element may not be as strong as advertised, but Aven’s narrative voice is easily enough to carry the story.
