A Different Kind of Normal: My Real-Life COMPLETELY True Story About Being Unique by Abigail Balfe

5.0

This is an excellent book about autism. Balfe writes from her own unique experience and tells her story so well. She intersperses her story with factoids and informational panels that helped me as a mom of two autistic boys and that I imagine would be wildly helpful for a young person learning about their diagnosis. I found more ASD organizations to follow and, like Balfe, autism is becoming a special interest of mine. I love hearing about autistic experiences and I love the uniqueness of the autistic kids at school. I can’t wait to make an autism display. This book will be front and center.
