I have searched through I don't know HOW many kids books looking for one like this. Can I tell you about Autism? talks about what it's like to be autistic in a kid friendly way - but here's the thing that sets it apart - in a way that acknowledges that not every child is like that! Most other autism related books talk about things very specific to one child - and make it sound like all autistic people are that way. It's frustrating, and I'm so glad I finally found one that doesn't! This one does have specific examples, but makes sure to say that not all kids have that same experience. I'll be loaning this to other families to use as they explain autism to their kids on the spectrum. The parent's section at the end with advice is pretty great, too - I love how they teach parents to use visual schedules and social stories! :) But to be honest, I'd buy it for the kids section alone. The only thing I would have liked is if there were something in the kid's section about the strengths of autistic people, to have something to make the kids feel positive about who they are. I'll have to buy a supplementary book to do that.This book is for a somewhat older crowd, I'd say best for ages 7 and up, but if you're looking a book for younger kids I'd recommend "Autism Is...?" which also explains autism in a general way most all kids on the spectrum can relate to. That book has the added bonus of talking about strengths for kids on the spectrum, which is great!
