Jamie Lee just wants to be normal, but his ADHD isn't making it easy. If only he could control his butterfly mind, then he'd have friends, be able to keep out of trouble, live with his mum, and not be sent to stay with his dad.

  Elin Watts just wants to be perfect. If she could be the best student and daughter possible, then maybe her dad would leave his new family and come back to Glasgow to live with her and her mum—happily ever after.

  When Jamie and Elin's families blend, the polar opposites of chaotic Jamie and ordered Elin collide. As their lives spiral out of control, Jamie and Elin discover that they're actually more alike than they would like to admit. Maybe there's no such thing as normal or perfect. And perhaps, just like families, happy-ever-afters come in all shapes and sizes.

  Uplifting and moving, The Boy with the Butterfly Mind is an inspiring story of acceptance, blended families, and discovering that in the end, being yourself is more than enough.
