Om Anderson the Ornithologist
Anderson prefers to do everything alone. One day a new kid named Sam joins him for lunch. Anderson is surprised and doesn't know what to say. But Sam's friendliness gives Anderson the courage to tell him a little about himself, such as his love for (ornithology) birdwatching. To his surprise, Sam wants to go birdwatching with him.
Anderson's story helps children recognize that being friends with someone different is rewarding. In addition, it shows how children with Asperger's syndrome can become true and loyal friends when given a chance. This is not a book about autism. This book is about Anderson, a child with autism, and his amazing hobby.
