Today's book review is Gus the Asparagus by Kaylene Hobson and Ann Marie Finn. I would love to introduce you to a special person called Gus! Gus might be the only asparagus in his family, but he is happy. If you have an asparagus in your family, you will recognise them in the things that Gus does.
When Gus goes to school he starts to realise that he doesn't always ‘fit in’ but he learns that it’s okay to be different. He will soon be a favourite with anyone who has ever felt a bit out of place, kids and adults alike. A sensitive look at the life of and living with a child with Asperger's Syndrome. The illustrations capture the imagination of the reader and are extremely appealing to children on the Autism spectrum for their realism and humour. A great tool to talk to kids about what it means to be diagnosed with a similar condition.
