Joanna Keating-Velasco follows her successful book A Is for Autism, F Is for Friend, in which "tweens" learn basic information about autism, with In His Shoes, where readers meet Nicholas, a 13-year-old boy who has severe autism. As readers join Nick during his transition from elementary to middle school, they share his challenges and celebrate his successes both at home and at school. The book lends itself well to youth-friendly discussions for students ages 11-15, helped by a series of "Points to Ponder" at the end of each chapter. It is a valuable tool for classrooms, community groups and families to promote discussions about life on the autism spectrum.
