Through the Eyes of Me

Through the Eyes of Me is a beautiful, colorful picture book for children which gives insight into the world of a child with autism. Readers will meet 4-year-old Kya who loves to run, read, look at – and rip up – stickers. Through the book, children will learn why Kya does certain things, doesn’t like some things, and really loves other things. This wonderful book is an ideal tool for teaching children about autism and life as a child with autism. Through the Eyes of Me was written by Jon Roberts when his 4-year-old daughter, Kya, was diagnosed with severe autism.

Jonathan Roberts has based his sensitive description on his experiences of raising his own daughter, who has severe autism. This is his first book. Hannah Rounding is an artist and creative development advisor, and has worked in these fields with groups and organizations all over the world.
