Asperger Syndrome, the Universe and Everything

" As a matter of fact, Kenneth, I've never seen such a smart guy like you who can write about developmental disabilities! In Japan, that's out of the question; fewer people know so much about Asperger Syndrome. Even many specialists are unaware of developmentally challenged people.
I don't mean to be sarcastic, Kenneth, but please take no offense; you're lucky enough to know you are diagnosed as AS earlier than me. On the other hand, I found that I have ADHD, AS, and PDD(=Pervasive Developmental Disorder) when I became 34. I should've noticed that earlier! - that's exactly how I feel right now. I have had a lot of difficulties to keep getting along with other people. So I had to change my jobs thousands of times, which a lot of people in Japan see as a big problem.
You don't want to live a hard life like me, Kenneth, because you're still young. Your mother, Mrs. Brenda Boyd must feel the same.
I'm sure to buy the book you will be likely to write next time! Just say hello to Mrs. Brenda Boyd! "

"This was the first book we bought after our daughter had been diagnosed and it was great to read. It gave us an insight into a different world, and made us laugh along the way. Very well written, giving Kenneths' experiences and feelings on everyday issues that we take for granted.

Excellent read."

"My 10 year old high functioning autistic son read this, and then read it repeatedly. It sparked lots of discussion and self awareness of his own strengths and difficulties.
If you are looking for peer material for your AS/HFA child then I highly recommend this. (Also, son has enjoyed all the Kathy Hoopman fiction books)"

"I thought this book was brilliant and also goes well with 'Parenting a child with Asperger Syndrome : 200 tips and strategies' which is written by his mother Brenda Boyd. Buy them both together now"

"This book is written by a an 8 year old boy with AS, and gives insight into how he sees the world around him. He explains the problems he has and how he and his family deal with them.
I found it very useful and will give it to my son to explain that others find things just as difficult as him."
