Different Like Me introduces children aged 8-12 years to famous, inspirational figures from the world of science, art, math, literature, philosophy and comedy.

Eight-year-old Quinn, a young boy with Asperger's syndrome, tells young readers about the achievements and characteristics of his autism heroes, from Albert Einstein, Dian Fossey and Wassily Kandisky to Lewis Carroll, Benjamin Banneker and Julia Bowman Robinson among others. All excel in different fields, but are united by the fact that they often found it difficult to fit in- just like Quinn.

Temple Grandin, Ph.D.  188 pages/ 2005

Temple Grandin longed for affection but feared human contact. Unable to experience reality as other children could, she was quick to anger, easily overstimulated, and isolated. Facing ceaseless waves of terrifying nerve attacks, she was a child heading into a dark abyss of autism. But within her lonely world, Temple harbored a creativity, intelligence, and yearning for self-expression that refused to die.

Now Temple tells her story of that emergence, of how she went from a fear-gripped, autistic childhood to become a successful professional, a world leader in her field. An astonishing true story, a chronicle of perserverance, courage, and the loving wisdom of a few adults who saw in Temple what others couldn't, EMERGENCE will give new hope and new insight into the tragedy of autism-and the vast potential of the human spirit.
