This is the exceptional result of author and parent Beverly Bishop's determination to educate her son's classmates about autism, thus helping her son fit in at school. A peer narrator explains that his friend with autism is good at some things and not so good at others-just like everyone else! In an informative, positive tone, he addresses issues such as: Sensory sensitivity, communication differences, unique ways of playing, and insistence on routine. At the end of the book are page-by-page notes for adults, which supplement the text with facts and explanations to further educate teachers and classmates' parents.
