Publisher Description: Yah-Yah was born in the late '60s. From an early age his younger sister knew he was different and that this made her family different. From the babysitter accusing Yah-Yah of being a witch to the endless effort to find Yah-Yah a safe and happy home, Yah-Yah and Me chronicles the life of a brother with Autism over a forty year period. More than 1 in 100 people in the UK have autism. This book gives a raw, honest account of living with autism and the people and systems that are supposed to help. This book has been written in the hope that it will encourage other families to share their stories because these stories matter. |
