From crossroads after diagnosis and life-changing realizations to parenting issues that intersect with disability justice efforts, this book's ability to explore both sides of the communities activating for and supporting autistic children and their families makes for a powerful unification effort that should be in any library interested in advocating for the good of a wide, diverse community.
