Book Reviews of Born on a Blue Day: Inside the Extraordinary Mind of an Autistic Savant

Book Review: Informative
Summary: 4 Stars

This book is a very good window into the mind of someone with Aspberger's. The author has a very unique perspective and ability to articulate what might be going through someone's mind while dealing with this issue. I feel it has given me a much better understanding and empathy for those with Autism.
