Summary

Part memoir and part guidebook to gaining a deeper understanding, this work offers a one-of-a-kind insight into the autism spectrum - written by a sixteen-year-old. For years, Callum struggled to navigate the world he lived in and meet social expectations before being told he was autistic at age thirteen. Wishing others understood more about the challenges of being on the spectrum, the teen shares his insights, perceptions, reactions, and experiences, from the triggers that lead to anxiety and shutdowns to tips for coping with stressful situations such as travelling, socialising, and communicating.
