Reviews
Maja encapsulates multiple views and shouts proudly the perspectives that autistic people want their parents to know but might not have the words for at the time. Growing up before and after my autism diagnosis I wish there was something as clear and accessible as this for my family. -- Sarah O'Brien, autistic advocate and writer
An exceptional read and a window into the thoughts, feelings, and experiences of autistic folks - of any age. This should be considered essential reading for every parent/guardian of an autistic child. I will be recommending this to all the families with whom I work. As a late diagnosed autistic, I found Maja's descriptions resonated with me, making sense of my early life experiences. What a gift, to feel so seen and heard in autism literature! -- Kara Dymond, PhD, autistic consultant, teacher, university lecturer, and author of The Autism Lens
