A Christmas on the spectrum - Paperback

by Ivelisse Marrero (Illustrator), Lizbelle Harb (Author)

"A Christmas on the spectrum" is a look into a child's thoughts and reactions to his twin cousins with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD).

When a family lives with ASD, the challenges can be significant for both caretakers and the person diagnosed alike. However, sometimes we forget the struggles and the confusion that an ASD diagnosis on a family member can cause in our little people's mind and routine.

Brothers, sisters, cousins, nephews, grandkids... they all want to love and be loved by the person diagnosed with ASD. And they often have to face questions like: How do I know what they want? Are they happy?

Kids will identify with our protagonist as they see an ASD world through his eyes, facing maybe the same questions and doubts as them.

"A Christmas on the spectrum" is a book to enjoy as a family. Whether there is an ASD diagnosis at home, at school or in the community, it is meant to bring a positive view or outcome to face all doubts.
