`Nita′s personal account of living with Asperger′s Syndrome is an enlightening read. Each chapter gives a revealing insight into her personal experience and challenges of day-to-day life - Contact a Family

This book is a fascinating account of Nita Jackson′s experience of Aspergers Syndrome. If you have already read Clare Sainsbury′s Martian in the Playground, don′t expect a similar publication.

Nita offers a personal account of her unique world:

" is she size 10 or 16?

" where does she come from?

" will she be up or down today?

The book contains personal descriptions of how Aspergers Syndrome affects the author′s day-to-day life and the people around her. Nita shows off her intensely creative talent in her poetry and diary entries, which are used throughout the book. At times, this is an uncomfortable read. However, it is an essential text if you want to understand how the world looks from Nita′s perspective.
