Description

Through the Eyes of Us is a beautiful, colourful picture book for children which gives insight into the world of children with autism.In this second book of the series, Kya is now going to school and has a best friend, Martha, who is also on the autistic spectrum but expresses herself very differently. Whilst Kya is quiet in the class, Martha is talkative and asks lots of questions. Both enjoy the sensation of eating, but Martha doesn't understand that she can eat too much. Both like a bedtime routine, but whilst Kya can keep going until late at night, Martha knows when she is tired and takes herself to bed.Written by Jon Roberts and illustrated by Hannah Rounding.Booktrust's 'Bookmark' Book of the Month August 2019 'Charmingly brought to life with exuberant illustrations by Hannah Rounding, this is a book which shares valuable autism-related experience, such as how certain activities may stimulate and why different textures can appeal. Above all, it is a beautiful book, rich in its universal sense of childhood fun and friendship, as we witness two children's affection for each other, their classmates and their families.' Booktrust

‘Reading Through the Eyes of Us made me smile ear to ear and I cannot wait to read this to my 11-year-old autistic daughter. One of the most exciting parts of being autistic, is finding a forever friend just like you. This book will help encourage those yet to find their special friend and resonate with those who luckily already have.’ Carly Jones MBE
‘So nice to read more about Kya – and now her friend Martha! These books really dive into the positive uniqueness of being autistic, told lovingly through the eyes of the children themselves.’ Amy Willerton, TV presenter and model
‘A delightful journey of two autistic girls as they experience the world from their perspectives.’ Alan Gardner, The Autistic Gardener
‘A perfect text to explain individuality and autism to young readers. I particularly like how the things Kya and Martha like are just the same as other young girls – just more so! It is a joyful book about autistic girls.’ Sarah Wild, Headteacher of Limpsfield Grange School
‘Beautifully captures the essence of autism in all its multidimensional glory!’ Katy Gough, invisible i
‘I love this book, the illustrations' colours are so beautiful. Every family starting out on their journey to school with their children should have a copy and within schools whether they are mainstream or SEND. Well done on another successful book. I will definitely recommend to families searching for books for their SEND children.’ Anna Kennedy OBE
