Lucy's Amazing Friend: A Story of Autism and Friendship

Stephanie Workman, Tim Raynes

Lucy's Amazing Friend: A Story of Autism and Friendship

Paperback (Riverrun Bookstore Inc Aug. 10, 2014)
Lucy doesn’t understand why the new boy in Miss Reed’s class doesn’t like her.

“I said hi and he ignored me,” she said.

“Lucy, that’s Daniel. He has autism,” Miss Miller responded. “What’s autism?” asked Lucy. From that moment on Lucy works to make friends with Daniel in this bright, upbeat book about autism. Once she succeeds, Lucy becomes determined that the other kids in the class learn to accept Daniel as well.

With an estimated 1 in 68 children now falling somewhere on the autism spectrum, "Lucy’s Amazing Friend" is just the right book to help children understand that we are all different, and while those differences can be challenging, they also make us each special.
