Why Won't He Look At Me? by Brandie Wiley

     This is my Facebook friend's book, written back in 2013.  Brandie Wiley is an amazing woman- I met through Facebook Pages.  Her heart's bigger than most and she carries an unequivocal love that inspires!

     Her book, Why Won't He Look At Me was written to show children of all ages and color autism is really about.  Written with her own children as characters, she places them in a fictional setting that helps to teach others about autism for understanding.  In the tale, Laura is new to Ms Donna's babysitting group.  There she meets other children-one in particular who won't speak or even look at her when she offers her friendship.  From there the story begins.

     Because I homeschool, we're always learning about things that make people different, especially since my son's biracial.  Even though he may never meet a child with autism, blindness or physical limitations, he knows that different is originality and should be cherished. This book was a wonderful read for him and he found appreciation in Laura and Koby's story. (Brandie's children, btw!)

     If you'd like to learn more on Brandie Wiley's books or even to check on her blog, where she shares her experiences as the mother of the children in this story, you can find her on her website- click here.

     Wonderful book- check her out and show to any child in your life.  Always be aware and be kind!
