A KIND OF SPARK is a debut middle grade novel by Elle McNicoll. I love debuts because I believe they often capture the writer's passion, and this one is no exception. McNicoll is a neurodivergent writer who is passionate about disability rights and representation.
A KIND OF SPARK is a first person narrative from Addie's point of view. Addie is autistic, as is her older sister Keedie. The reader gets a peek inside her head as Addie tries to navigate her world, her friends, and fight for the witches who were misunderstood and given the ultimate punishment. Addie can relate, being different. And she wonders if she would have been drowned or burned for her differences in another time.
