As a mother of a little girl with autism I loved being able to read this. Was able to connect and understand it in so much of a deeper level and I know so many need to read this as well

This compelling book delves into the evolving understanding of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), especially in relation to girls. Historically, autism was viewed as a condition that predominantly affected boys, leading researchers to overlook girls for decades. Girls with autism often camouflage their behaviors and mimic social skills, making their autism less noticeable and contributing to years of underdiagnosis. The author highlights the distinct experiences of girls with ASD and emphasizes the importance of ensuring they are no longer excluded from the conversation.
