Having become an instant “grandmother” of a 4 yr old boy with autism, I was looking for something to help me get an understanding of this condition. This book is wonderful. It’s easy to read and gives an excellent understanding of what a child with autism deals with from day to day. I liked the book so much, I decided to buy extra copies to give to my daughter and sister. Well worth the small investment.
