Young Adult Book: The Infinite by Patience Agbabi

Artlink

The Infinite is the debut children’s novel by poet Patience Agbabi, whose inspiration comes from her autistic son (and her undiagnosed, but complicated late mother).

In a world somewhat like our own, Elle (loves that her name is a palindrome, hates her too-tight cornrows) is a 29 February leapling. She has the gift of time travel; she also has trouble fitting in at the top-secret Intercalary International academy because of her neurodivergence. Safe harbour is to be found on the running track or under tables; both places figure on this time-travel school trip turned quest.
