The superhero of this book, Nathan, explains about his Autism Spectrum Superpowers, how they affect him, and ways his friends can help out when his superpowers spiral out of control. This book is a tool to help children and their friends, families and caregivers understand kids with superpowers. All children need to know they're wanted, loved and special. All children need to know they have superpowers. And all children especially need to know they're wonderfully made. The author, Lori Leigh Yarborough, is a physical therapist and graduate from the University of Oklahoma Health Sciences Center. She makes her home in Texas with her husband and their four children. Her second son, Nathan, was diagnosed on the Autism Spectrum with Aspergers when he was little. She came up with a creative way to explain to Nathan why he didn't respond to things like other kids did. After she told Nathan about his "Supersonic Hearing" he was so excited to finally understand in a way that made sense why things were so loud and overwhelming to him. He wanted to know ALL his superpowers. So she wrote this book for him. Each superpower has a "helpful hints for friends" section that was originally written for Nathan's siblings and friends to know how help him out when his superpowers took over. This is the first book in the ONE THREE NINE INSPIRED series. Each book is written about a specific child in corroboration with his or her parents. The information given is about that particular child's superpowers, but will be relatable to other children with the same diagnosis and abilities.
