Ei tämänhetkisiä Keskustelu-viestiketjuja tästä kirjasta.  jjbinkc | Aug 27, 2023 |  A survey of autism, as written by a 13-year-old autistic boy. This book gave me a number of insights into how the mind of an autistic person functions and how heavily impactful upon such a person's emotions the syndrome is. This is a brief, simple, yet compelling book, worth reading for anyone who wants better to understand autism from the "inside." (  ) jumblejim | Aug 26, 2023 | What a truly incredible book. Noaki wrote this book when he was 13 years old. A child diagnosed with autism at 5 who has struggled all his life with this incredibly difficult condition has finally learned a way to communicate through the written word. This is a soul that has never been able to express itself before now able to tell the world what life is truly like living with autism. The book takes the form of 58 common questions that are asked about autism and answers to each are given by Naoki. These questions and answers are interspersed with Naoki's prose and the book ends with a short story, also by Naoki. It's not a long book and it's not a difficult read, it never goes off on tangents with pointless facts or science, it stays very much on target and is incredibly accessible. And in so being, this makes this book a must read book for everyone, because we will all meet people with autism along our paths. This book gives a lot of insight into just what is happening within that other human being, that there is a truly thoughtful and caring human being struggling within, and a little understanding of their abilities and disabilities would go a very long way to making their day a little better and not add any more to their struggles. Just read it!!! (  ) 5t4n5 | Aug 9, 2023 | Literature shows us what other kinds of lives we could have lived, how we could have been different sorts of persons, how we are in some way like every other person on the planet. That's why I found this book of interest. (  ) mykl-s | Jul 24, 2023 | Excellent recommendation from a friend who has an autistic nephew ( ) zizabeph | May 7, 2023 | ei arvosteluja | lisää arvostelu

Written by a very smart, very self-aware, and very charming thirteen-year-old boy with autism, this is a one-of-a-kind memoir that demonstrates how an autistic mind thinks, feels, perceives, and responds in ways few of us can imagine. Parents and family members who never thought they could get inside the head of their autistic loved one at last have a way to break through to the curious, subtle, and complex life within. With disarming honesty and a generous heart, Naoki shares his unique point of view on not only autism but life itself. His insights--into the mystery of words, the wonders of laughter, and the elusiveness of memory--are so startling, so strange, and so powerful that you will never look at the world the same way again. In his introduction, bestselling novelist David Mitchell writes that Naoki's words allowed him to feel, for the first time, as if his own autistic child was explaining what was happening in his mind. This translation was a labor of love by David and his wife, KA Yoshida, so they'd be able to share that feeling with friends, the wider autism community, and beyond.--From publisher description.

I borrowed this from the KC Library, my first Kindle download from the library.
I read this for insight into my autistic nephew and it was indeed helpful.
The fact that it was written by a young autistic boy is almost beyond belief.
