Can I tell you about Asperger Syndrome?
Written by Jude Welton
Illustrated by Jane Telford
Forward by Elizabeth Newson

"Meet Adam - a young boy with Asperger Syndrome (AS).  Adam invites young readers to learn about AS from his perspective.  He helps children understand the difficulties faced by a child with AS - he tells them what AS is, what it feels like to have AS and how they can help children with AS by understanding their differences and appreciating their many talents.  This illustrated book is ideally suited for boys and girls between 7 and 15 years of age and also serves as an excellent starting point for family and classroom discussions".


I was so excited when I discovered this book.  Finally, a book written from an AS childs perspective that is easy for children and adults to understand.  
Robin Siesser, D-PAC Corresponding Secretary/Publicist
