Real Life Autism- By: cyberseraphim, 16 Jun 2008 A very moving & interesting account of living with autism. I liked the way the vulnerability & the fragility of David's life was shown with such love & poignancy. Often (unintentionally) autistic children are protrayed as frightening destructive creatures because they don't understand the rules of life. This book showed us, as far as is possible, how the world looks from the point of view of the child.Brilliant!- By: F. M. Prevett, 30 Mar 2008 I read this bookin one day (okay I was on a train to London & back!) It is one of the funniest, most moving & emotional books I have ever read. It is not inviting you to feel sorry for either the boyin the book or the parents but a portrayal of how life is for them as a family, including the older son. It was funny enough to make me laugh out loud, illiciting some strange looks from the other passengersin the compartment, & also made me swallow once or twice at particularly emotive descriptions. I cannot recommend it highly enough.
