Publisher's Synopsis
Amazing Eddie No Ordinary Boy: A child's struggle with life, school and autism Life is chaotic enough, but for 8-year-old Eddie, it is downright mystifying. The doctor says Eddie has something called "autism," but what does that mean? Maybe it's the reason he struggles so much with unpredictable mysteries like "substitute teachers"-or why he gets in trouble all the time at home. Not only does Eddie struggle to understand social cues that seem to come easy for his classmates, but he's also got to deal with Freddy-his boisterous older brother with a diagnosis of his own. Between Freddy's ADHD and Eddie's ASD, there is more mayhem and mischief at home than anyone ever dreamed. Survive Eddie will, though-and thrive. Follow Eddie's journey as he fights to have his needs met using the only tools he has. This book is ideal for children, parents, teachers, and caregivers of children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and Attention Deficit Hyperactive Disorder (ADHD).
