More DescriptionMy goal with this book is to help those who are just being diagnosed to understand they are not alone in being on this vast spectrum.I also hope to help families and teachers in better understanding this spectrum. A lot has changed from the historic approaches of what to do and how to react.So to answer the question of what does autism mean to me, I would like to say this: Autism to me means a unique take on the world. It is one journey at a time with observing the world to see all that the world has to share with you. There should always be room in your mind to always accommodate new knowledge and to gain insight from what you are seeing.Each day I find myself making room for more knowledge in my mind. I seek out more insight to ponder the meaning of what I have seen. There is always room in my heart to make more love available to my family and friends.* * *Tom Brooks is an author from Reading Massachusetts - a small town north of Boston. He has Asperger's.
