Covering everything from common talents of those with AS to skills and activities they might find more difficult, the film looks at life as an Aspie from a variety of different perpectives. This insightful and innovative DVD will be of interest to everyone wishing to learn about AS, from children in schools, to families of those with the disorder and professionals working alongside them. It is an ideal first step towards understanding Asperger's Syndrome. "Its lively presentation uses cartoons, interviews and slideshows to explore the concept of Asperger's syndrome from the perspective of young people. It draws on their experiences of difficulties with relationships, social events, bullying and, for example, issues around coping with different flavours and textures of food on the same plate...With a running time of 30 minutes, it is short enough to sustain interest and it uses this time most effectively to stimulate follow up discussion." - SEN Magazine, Mary Mountstephen
