Winner of an iParenting Media Award, this adorable picture book shows readers the challenges that children with autism face and the obstacles they overturn. It is lovingly written in the perspective of three-year-old Foster, who explains his experiences with his older brother, Gavin, who has autism. Vibrant photographs bring you right into their living room, school, and playground. Foster's innocent approach is perfect for teaching others what autism is all about, and for letting other siblings of children with autism know that they are not alone. Angie Healy, the boys' mother, provides a how-to section at the end so families can create their own personalized books.

Aurora ★★★★★

My daughter is on the spectrum and for once she saw herself in a story instead of just the kid who needs extra help. The autism diagnosis is handled so gently here, and the sibling's point of view made my older son ask better questions. We've read it probably twenty times already.

Joshua ★★★★★

Reading this to my son opened up a conversation I didn't know how to start. The story being told from the sibling's point of view is what makes it work, since it shows the daily obstacles without ever feeling heavy-handed.

Lily ★★★★★

My nephew has autism and this book captures our family's daily reality so perfectly. The way it's told from the brother's perspective makes it easy for my other kids to understand what their cousin goes through, and the iParenting award it won is well deserved. We've read it three times already this
