Publisher Description James Williams is an SP or special person – was diagnosed with autism during early childhood. His mother, Joan Matthews, is an NP or normal person. As James grew up, his different perception of the world and the lack of understanding from NPs created problems. Together, James and his mother met the challenges with ingenuity and humour. One day, while taking a walk, they decided to write a book of their practical solutions. Covering a range of issues, from eye sensitivity, to knowing how far away to stand from other people, to being polite when someone is crying, James and Joan’s book describes the problems that an SP may face, and the solutions which they have found to work successfully. Pervaded by their caustic humour and common sense, this book should be useful to other SPs and their families both as a source of advice and an account of how it feels to be an SP.
