Reseña de Booklist
Though the picture books in the A First Look at . . . series deal with a wide range of conditions, they all begin with respect for children. Thomas doesn't define individuals by their differences, instead discussing their physical, mental, and emotional challenges in a straightforward, kindly manner. Meanwhile, appealing pencil-and-watercolor illustrations show situations arising in familiar school, home, and neighborhood settings. The appended section for parents and teachers offers a good deal of sound, practical advice as well as suggested books and online resources. Aimed at siblings and classmates, I See Things Differently comments on how and why kids with autism see things differently and on behaviors that may seem puzzling. Some unusually positive features include apt discussion questions, illustrations showing children with autism sometimes looking happy, and even girls with autism (often only boys are depicted). A worthwhile series of helpful picture books.--Phelan, Carolyn Copyright 2014 Booklist
