Christopher Boone is a fifteen year old boy with Asperger’s Syndrome.
He knows a great deal about maths and has a very logical way of
thinking. Christopher knows very little about human beings and their
behaviour and gets very confused and frustrated by most conversations.
He loves lists, timetables, patterns and the truth. He hates the
colour yellow, because of custard, bananas and double yellow lines and
he also hates the colour brown because of dirt, gravy and wood. One of
the affects of his Asperger’s syndrome means Christopher also hates
being touched. He has never gone further than the end of the road on
his own, but when he finds his neighbour Mrs Shears’ pet poodle
Wellington has been murdered he sets out on a frightening journey
which will turn his whole world upside down.
