First sentence: Today was Field Trip Day. Henry was excited. Everyone in Classroom Ten would ride the bus to the museum. Henry was also worried. Everyone in Class Ten would ride the bus to the museum.

Premise/plot: Do you know Henry? Henry has starred in a picture book and another early chapter book. You can read about Henry in A Friend for Henry and Henry, Like Always. Henry, who is on the autism spectrum, is excited-scared about the class field trip. Should he go? Should he stay? It might be awesome. It might be too overwhelming. Henry does decide to go...but will his non-regular day turn out to be amazing?

My thoughts: I really LOVE, LOVE, LOVE, LOVE Henry. I love the writing and characterization. So few words yet so relatable. I definitely recommend all the books. I hope there are many, many more in the future. The world needs more Henry.

Henry has autism but he is portrayed as an everyday kid with likes, dislikes, and a penchant for needing things just so. He finds a way to resolve his discomfort with an unscheduled class parade by offering a trade with a classmate: to lead the parade in a fancy hat while the other boy happily plays the too-noisy tambourine.
