There's A Boy In Here: Emerging from the Bonds of Autism
By Judy Barron and Sean Barron
______________
This is a view from inside the mind of autism—a dual autobiography written in point-counterpoint style by Judy Barron and her son, Sean Barron. Together, they chronicle Sean’s young life and the effects of autism on him and his family. As a youngster, Sean was confrontational, uncontrollable, “isolated and desperately unhappy.”
Baffled about how to interact with others, he felt “like an alien from outer space.” Then, at seventeen, Sean experienced a breakthrough
that began his release from autism. Today he’s a public speaker, college student, and reporter—and close to his family. You absolutely must read this book.
