Book
The reason I jump : the inner voice of a thirteen-year-old boy with autism / Naoki Higashida ; translated by Ka Yoshida and David Mitchell.
"Written by Naoki Higishida when he was only thirteen, this remarkable book explains the often baffling behaviour of autistic children and shows the way they think and feel - such as about the people around them, time and beauty, noise, and themselves. Naoki abundantly proves that autistic people do possess imagination, humour and empathy, but also makes clear, with great poignancy, how badly they need our compassion, patience and understanding."--From publisher.
