- More about Ellen Outside the Lines
Thirteen-year-old Ellen Katz is autistic and has a best friend, Laurel, who helps her navigate social situations. However, Laurel has started making more friends and canceling plans with Ellen, causing her to question their friendship. On a school trip to Barcelona, Ellen meets a new nonbinary classmate who challenges her binary way of seeing the world, and she must learn to embrace the fact that life doesn't always stick to a planned itinerary.

Thirteen-year-old Ellen Katz thrives when her life is meticulously organized, with individuals fitting perfectly into her predefined categories. She attends temple with her father, Abba, and mother every Friday and Saturday. Ellen exclusively develops crushes on girls, never boys, and she confidently relies on her best friend, Laurel, to navigate social situations at their private Georgia middle school. Laurel has always made Ellen feel that being autistic is insignificant, but recently, Laurel has been making more friends and canceling more weekend plans with Ellen than she keeps. A school trip to Barcelona presents an opportunity for Ellen to rekindle their friendship.
However, things take an unexpected turn. Ellen encounters a new nonbinary classmate whose identity challenges her binary perspective on the world. She also experiences homesickness, adding an additional layer of complexity to the trip. The students are tasked with a scavenger hunt-style team project that takes them through Barcelona, immersing them in Spanish culture.
This trip is far from what Ellen had envisioned. Making new friends and letting go of old ones is a challenging process, but Ellen might discover a sense of comfort in embracing the unpredictable nature of life. She realizes that life doesn't always follow a predetermined itinerary, and that's okay. Through this journey, Ellen learns to adapt, grow, and find a new place for herself that embraces the complexities and unpredictabilities of life.
