Synopsis

'a joy to read, brimming with fun throughout.' Children's Books Ireland Recommended Reads 2019-2020

'Charmingly brought to life with exuberant illustrations by Hannah Rounding, this is a book which shares valuable autism-related experience... Above all, it is a beautiful book, rich in its universal sense of childhood fun and friendship, as we witness two children's affection for each other, their classmates and their families.' BookTrust

'A welcome addition to your storytime bookshelf and simply perfect for building understanding of difference... A marvelous, wonderful book!' Fallen Star Stories

Sequel to the acclaimed Through the Eyes of Me, Through the Eyes of Us is a beautiful, colourful picture book for children which gives insight into the world of children with autism and follows the experiences of Kya.

In this second book of the series, Kya is now going to school and has a best friend, Martha, who is also on the autistic spectrum but expresses herself very differently. Whilst Kya is quiet in the class, Martha is talkative and asks lots of questions. Both enjoy the sensation of eating, but Martha doesn't understand that she can eat too much. Both like a bedtime routine, but whilst Kya can keep going until late at night, Martha knows when she is tired and takes herself to bed. Through the Eyes of Us is an insight into the world of children with autism and an ideal tool for discussion with young readers.
