Catherinin osmogodišnji brat, David, ima autizam; on voli pravila i Catherine mu pomaže tako što postavlja pravila i podsjeća Davida kada ih treba slijediti. Jednog dana, dok je bila u čekaonici Davidove OT klinike, Catherine upoznaje dječaka po imenu Jason. Ni ne zna da će susret s Jasonom utjecati na njezin život više nego što je mogla očekivati.

Friendship
Okay, let's go, Jason!
Communication
What are you laughing at, Frog?
Catherine dreams of the perfect friendship with her cool new neighbor. However, the friendship doesn’t blossom, as the girls are more different than Catherine had hoped. On the other hand, Catherine forms a strong friendship with Jason, who is the last person she ever thought she’d be friends with. Friendship often comes in the most surprising places.
Catherine communicates with others in different ways. With David, she communicates with him through a set of rules and through dialogue from the Frog and Toad books. She communicates with Jason using word cards. She struggles to communicate with Kristi, fearing that Kristi won’t be her friend if she knows all about her.
