Girls with an Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) are often quite different from boys with an ASD. In this fully-illustrated, colour storybook, Lizzie, an 'Aspie Girl', talks about all the things she and other girls with Asperger Syndrome sometimes find difficult, and all of the things that make them special.
A Book to Help Young Girls Discover and Celebrate Being Autistic
Focusing on the experiences of an autistic girl, the narrative provides insights into her unique challenges and strengths. Lizzie shares her feelings about social interactions, fatigue from school, and the pressure of making mistakes. Aimed at autistic girls aged 5-11, the book promotes understanding and self-acceptance while celebrating their differences. It also includes discussion points for parents and professionals, making it a valuable resource for fostering positive conversations about autism.
