Addie: “Passionate, loving, very intelligent… she cares a lot”
Addie is a bright and sparky autistic girl. She has a naturally optimistic nature and a good sense of humour, both of which are encouraged by her loving, supportive, slightly chaotic family. To others, Addie may seem quite blunt, saying things out loud which other people might hold back, although she is a genuinely kind and thoughtful person who also notices small things that other people might miss.
Keedie: "A free spirit... and strong-willed"
Addie’s older sister and Nina’s twin. Keedie is funny, outspoken and fiercely protective of her little sister, Addie. She’s also autistic and is usually loud and proud about it, but this school year she has chosen not to share this information with some new friends.
Nina: “There’s a lot of empathy… and she keeps trying”
Addie’s older sister and Keedie’s twin, Nina is neurotypical. She is popular, has her own makeup tutorial vlog and is very concerned about her ‘brand’ and being perfect. She loves her sisters, but often feels excluded from their special bond.
Audrey: "Super cool, very chilled and laid back"
Audrey recently relocated from the city to Juniper, where her mum was raised. Confident and unapologetic, she becomes a great, loyal friend to Addie. But since arriving in town, she has been feeling a bit weird and discovers she’s connected to this town more than she knew.
