![]() ![]() There were also a few quotations that caused me to laugh out loud – it's good to be able to infuse some humor in what is a topic that can get quite serious.Īnother aspect of the structure of the book is that at the end of each topic (chapter), Rudy summarises by providing direct advice to aspergirls, followed by advice to aspergirl parents. What I particularly like about this tome is she quotes regularly from interviewed girls and women with AS and consequently adds many voices to hers in her coverage of a myriad of topics, from challenges in schools, to the impact of puberty on aspergirls. Her approach to writing is to say it as it is, and simply. Rudy Simone has Asperger's Syndrome (AS) and has been a strong advocate for those with the condition for some years. Aspergirls is quite atypical of many i have read and refreshing in style. Being a parent of a girl with autism biases my reading interest toward books on the topic, and to date I have read a lot. ![]()
