Amazon.com description: Product Description: REVISED EDITION incorporating the sequel, ‘Wings to fly’. Linda’s book takes us to places we have never been, to places of the heart, teaching us to have the courage to look at life through the eyes of others. Linda chronicles her life with her son from his birth, covering the early years, teen years to adulthood. It follows the roller coaster ride from the bizarre to the obscene, the poetic and the hilarious, the heartache and the joy. The story embraces the muddled, hilarious stumbling between two worlds, linked by love—worlds that seemed so desperately different at first view; hand in hand, mother and son. A boy obsessed with the unfathomable, a mother obsessed with understanding him. Linda has poignantly captured the struggle of living with a child who appears to see the world through broken glass. Asperger’s is like watching a child trying to play hopscotch when he can’t see the squares, and everyone else can. It is a book that informs about Asperger’s Syndrome in a uniquely accessible way, pulling no punches, but is buoyant with hope and spirit. Brooks continues the journey with her son, Bronson. This revised version contains ‘Wings to fly’, where the focus is to give a clearer view of the struggle adults with Asperger’s and their families face daily, in a narrative that is real, engaging and accessible. There is a view into the fearless flight of her son into manhood, interviews with friends and specialists, which give an intimate window into their lives and also a selection of posters. Statistics and research can only offer so much. Brooks brings warmth, passion and wit to life once more—we gain insight and ultimately awareness of this misunderstood syndrome and discover the wonderful mantra that ‘it’s never too late’. The beauty of this edition is it’s triumph. I am very pleased to be involved with Linda’s book, ‘I’m not broken, I’m just different’. I think we both have a very important message and I certainly endorse Linda’s positive approach. I know it will change the lives of many families. Professor Tony Attwood
