This book is amazing! The writer is only 13, but he has a profound sense of self and the capability of expressing himself. This is made even more amazing, because he does not express himself as we do, but rather with the use of an alphabet grid. His mother created this grid to help him communicate. It had to be thrilling for her to finally be able to understand what was locked up inside of her son.
"Sometimes I actually pity you for not being able to see the beauty of the world in the same way we do."
This book is a gift from her and her son as a step towards understanding those with autism. An easy, fulfilling read.
