  Such a great book for, what I found, a tricky subject to broach with my sensitive autistic 10 year old son. It discusses what’s needed in a very clear, direct manner and leaves out the trickier ‘birds and bees’ stuff. There’s a lovely bit about being autistic and how they may differ to others, but how perfect they are anyway. It’s a touching end to a great book. So glad I choose this one over a few others I looked at. It’s also very well illustrated.

  This book is advertised as being a useful book for boys with autism. I think it must be aimed at children with higher functioning autism. My Grandson has autism and learning difficulties. He doesn’t realise he is different to others. The book doesn’t give any really helpful tips about how to deal with hormonal changes or how to help them to deal with it. Complete waste of money!

  This book is worth every penny! My son read the whole book in one sitting and it helped him to ask me otherwise difficult questions. It's written very well and I am very glad I bought it. I would certainly recommend to anyone who has an Autistic son.

  To the point, but only for high on the scale is my thought, I know our lad thought it was too childish and with his gift he's a lot informative than most adults.
