Fun and informative book to share with kids

A great book to help your typical child deal with some of the issues of having an autistic child.

Honest and touching

This book was recommended by another mom of a special needs boy with a younger brother. I read it to my 8 year old who's older brother has autism. It describes sympathically but honestly our own family story over the past few years. It 'normalised' what seems sometimes to just be happening to our family. I well recommend this book to anyone trying to explain or understand family life for those of us with kids on the spectrum of autismin the first few years.

Looks like a book for siblings...but actually for anyone who wants to really understand autism. The compelling true story of an 8-year-old boy whose life at three was suddenly turned upside down by the birth of his young brother, severely affected by autism. Witness his confusion as he describes the hardships he endured daily. Laugh with him at certain ludicrous situations. Feel his sadness as he describes the loss of his life as he once knew it. Watch through Jason's eyes as his brother slowly transforms from a child who had essentially no "human" characteristics, screamed endlessly, was vicious with himself and others, and rarely slept for most of his first two years, to a gentle, loving, five-year-old boy.
