Hello, Stranger: My Life on the Autism Spectrum by Barbara Moran, Karl Williams
Requirements: .ePUB reader, 1.4 MB
Overview: "…Insights from a time when a young person with autism grew up in a world where nobody understood them!" – Temple Grandin, author, Thinking in Pictures
Barbara Moran has never known how to be good.
As a child, she made strange noises, fidgeted constantly, and licked her lips until they cracked. She had "upsets" that embarrassed and frustrated her family. Worse still, she developed friendships with inanimate objects—everything from roller skates to tables to an antique refrigerator—and became obsessed with images of cathedrals.
She was institutionalized, analyzed, and marginalized, cast aside as not trying hard enough to fit in.
But after almost forty years, Barbara was given an answer for her inability to be like, and to connect with, other people: autism.
