Good advice but light on

I liked the book for my ten year old who has some like qualities that make me feel she may be border on the spectrum.
There was some great advice. I just wish there had been more. I liked the humor and mostly positive message although it did seem to, at times, become a platform to air certain grievances about a teacher or person.
