I have been researching for some books that my 10yr old NT
daughter can read to better understand her brother's (age 8)
AS. She is cuurently not aware of his diagnosis. My husband and
I want to talk to her about it and also give her a book or 2 that
she can read that would help her understand better. I want to get
a fictional book that has a story/plot so that she will want to read it.
Has anyone read "Blue Bottle Mystery" or "Of Mice and Aliens"
and also "Andy and His Yellow Frisbee"?

my daughter's teacher bought a book called Rules for the classroom and she decided to bring it home. It is about a sibling of a child with Autism...
