Description
At age ten, Samuel’s considerable intellectual gifts were complicated by autism, obsessive
compulsive disorder and the extreme anxiety that accompanies both of these conditions. As a
result, Sam had developed several unique communication differences, unwavering avoidance of
any hint that adults were controlling him, and other challenging behaviors that disrupted harmony
at home, school and in the community.This is a book about the “I” in IEP. Special education teams
create Individual Education Plans of accommodations and goals for their students. But some
students, like Samuel, can only survive in public school with a highly individualized program.In
addition to many common autism struggles, Sam was contending with an invisible postmaster who
stole many of his words, panic in response to asymmetrical touch, an unyielding inability to comply
with adult directives, and a myriad of other issues.The book is entirely true, as creative nonfiction
must be. Told from the perspective of speech/language pathologist and autism consultant
Elizabeth Field, with input from the now-adult Sam and his supportive parents, it weaves the story
of their neurodivergent and neurotypical collaboration with the themes of highly individualized
education, the consequences of anxiety, and the benefits of acceptance, trust, innovation,
patience, and humor.Unlike the author’s first book, Building Communication and Independence for
Children Across the Autism Spectrum, which addressed issues of communication and interactive
behavior that occur frequently among children all across the autism spectrum, this book is about
unique or unusual challenges complicating the life of one autistic individual. It aims to illustrate that
the process of building relationships and intervening therapeutically is an art as well as a science
and often involves individualized creativity along with evidence-based practices. Sometimes this
requires accepting that another person’s reality may be very different from your own.
