About

Written by Naoki Higashida when he was only thirteen, this remarkable book provides a rare insight into the behaviour of autistic children. Using a question-and-answer format, Naoki explains why he talks loudly or repeats the same questions, and why he likes to jump. Abundantly proving that people with autism do possess imagination, humour and empathy, he also makes clear how badly they need our compassion, patience and understanding.
