Description

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.
