Summary: A Touching, Insightful Look at What it Means to Be Autistic
Comment: If I knew where Earl P. Martin lived, I would drive to his home and give him a fierce bear hug.
"Dear Charlie" is based on letters from a grandfather to his Autistic grandson, Charlie. As Mr. Martin shares in his letters his thoughts on what it will mean to Charlie to grow up Autistic, he paints a loving, well thought out sourcebook to accompany his grandson through life as a grandfather realizes that Autism has not made Charlie disabled, it has simply made him differently abled.
I am delighted that the publisher had the good sense to publish a book that goes beyond the one in a million miracle cures that so often form the bulk of the better selling books on Autism.
Mr. Martin's letters to Charlie provide parents a valuable resource to open a dialogue with the higher functioning autistic child which reassures him that it is ok to have Autism. For the older Autistic child who can read, I can't imagine a better tool for boosting self esteem than urging him to read this book.
This is one Autism source book I know I'll reach for again and again as I lead my two Autistic sons towards puberty and adulthood.
Thank you Mr. Martin for showing our children that they can live well with Autism. Bravo!
