Book Reviews of Can I Tell You About Asperger Syndrome?: A Guide for Friends and Family
Book Review: Amazing read for ALL!!!
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this book soon after my son was diagnosed as being an Aspie. It was a quick read that produced so many "Aha!" moments. The book is very "non-threatening", with pictures and written in the voice of a child, so I let my son (7-years-old at the time) read it. He seemed very satisfied, almost relieved, to find a "reason" for personal quirks he thought made him "different". I then passed the book to multiple family members and they, too, each had their own "Aha!" moments. This is not the book for technical terms or case studies, but it is a great introduction to an array of Aspie characteristics.
