Reviews

As intended, this book gives a good first-hand account about life before and after diagnosis. This would be useful to people with autism, parents, partners, friends and employers. Positive, funny and insightful; it is a reminder that living with autism takes courage, hard work, encouragement and understanding from those with a diagnosis and society in general. -- Karen Wilmshurst, Advocacy Services Manager, Autism Wessex As a support worker for people on the autism spectrum, I found this book a very helpful guide. It has helped me to be much more aware of the things people with Asperger's can struggle with. I can highly recommend it to anyone who knows somebody with Asperger's as well as to people on the spectrum who just received their diagnosis. -- Karin Meineke, Support Worker, Autism Wessex
