Naoki Nakata/CITIC Publishing House
Naoki Toda, the author of I Want to Fly to Heaven, is a Japanese boy. At the age of 5, he was diagnosed with severe autism and couldn't say a word at all. The "letter lattice" and keyboard became his tools to express himself. The world of autistic children has always been a secret, and in this book, Naoki Toda shows the inner world of autistic children in detail in the form of questions and answers. Naoki Toda can't express himself freely in words, but it doesn't mean that he is clumsy at heart. "Autumn is coming, the chill is pressing, and life comes to an abrupt end. People still have a lot of time, but for us autistic people, we are always fidgeting. From sunrise to sunset, just like Zen, we keep shouting and calling. It is hard for us to imagine such a beautiful and infectious sentence flowing from his pen. Look, we know nothing about them. Naoki Toda said in his book, "All that glitters is not gold. And once you know the inner world of others, the distance between you two will be closer. In your opinion, the world of autistic people must look mysterious. So please take a moment to listen to what I want to say. "This book is what Naoki Toda wants to say, and it is also what many autistic children want to say.
This book opens a door for us to understand children with autism intuitively, so that we can directly see their true thoughts and feelings. Why do they speak so loudly and strangely? Why do they ask the same question over and over again? Why can't they talk normally? Why do they often cover their ears ... behaviors and thoughts that we can't understand in autistic children can be found in this book. The son of david mitchell, a famous British writer, suffers from autism. After reading Naoki Toda's book, he wrote: "This book is like a gift from God, which makes me feel for the first time that my son is telling me his inner world through Dong Tian's brush strokes."

Boy Sean: Out of Autism
Judy Barron and Sean Barron/Huaxia Publishing House
Sean Boy: Getting Out of Autism was writing when Sean was studying for his second bachelor's degree in an American university. Shortly after the book was published, Sean began to give public speeches about his own world and his experience in fighting autism. In this book, Sean, an autistic patient, and his mother describe their life experiences from different angles, showing us the difference between ordinary people and autistic people. In the eyes of his mother, Sean, who is trapped in autism, is always "immersed in his own world", "almost everything he does is wrong", "he will never understand" and he will never get feedback from his love. But from Sean's statement, he can not only think and perceive life, but also have complicated feelings and thoughts about his relationship with others. Readers can see the unique way of thinking of autistic people, as well as the difficulties and challenges they face; At the same time, we can also see the frustration and pain experienced by parents of autistic patients in this book.
The authors of the above books are all unfortunate. Autism makes their lives less bright than others. But they are also lucky, at least they can write down their lives bound by autism. Some of them have recovered, some have high IQ, special talents, and some have beautiful writing. It is precisely because of this that we have the opportunity to understand the truest world of autism through their words. However, such autistic patients are only a few, and most of them have different degrees of mental retardation, which makes them lose close contact with the world.
The following two books are recommended for people with autism:
