Freckle Books- My name is Andrew: I Have Autism , by Laurie Beetler and illustrated by Maria Holubek (local)

What is unique about the Freckle Books is that they are written in first person - with  the special needs child as the main character.  Children will immediately relate to the character as he shares some of his favorite things, as well as his challenges.  He describes what might be difficult for him and suggests ways for his peers to help.  Children will love to examine the other characters in the stories and in the end, will have a new appreciation for their special friend. Wonderful book for classrooms!
