About this product

Product Information

All Cats Have Asperger Syndrome takes a playful look at Asperger Syndrome (AS), drawing inspiration from the feline world in a way that will strike a chord with all those who are familiar with AS. Delightful colour photographs of cats bring to life familiar characteristics such as sensitive hearing, scampering at the first sign of being stroked, and particular eating habits. Touching, humorous and insightful, this book evokes the difficulties and joys of raising a child who is different and leaves the reader with a sense of the dignity, individuality, and potential of people with AS. This engaging book is an ideal, gentle introduction to the world of AS. `There is a great deal of truth in humour. If you have only just begun to discover why someone with Asperger's syndrome is different, this book will inform and entertain you. The descriptions provide an accurate balance between the qualities and difficulties associated with Asperger's syndrome, while the photographs will make the journey of discovery enjoyable and remarkable.' - Tony Attwood, author of Asperger's Syndrome and The Complete Guide to Asperger's Syndrome

  • Very basic book

    This is an extremely basic book for adults/parents, and not very useful. But it’s also a bit too advanced for younger children to help them understand Aspergers. Maybe good for 8-10 year olds.

  • Purfect for Aspie Kids

    Light but resonates with children and their families about some of the characteristics that make them so beautifully unique! Gorgeous way to "help" a child learn they do not need "fixing"

  • Great example

  • Highly negative

    So glad I read this before reading it to my son, so I could toss it into the bin.... “you might be bullied”... “your parents might feel sad”.... “people might not understand you”. Entirely negative.
