Explanation As Books Anything But Typical

Jason Blake is an autistic 12-year-old living in a neurotypical world. Most days it’s just a matter of time before something goes wrong. But Jason finds a glimmer of understanding when he comes across PhoenixBird, who posts stories to the same online site as he does.

Jason can be himself when he writes and he thinks that PhoenixBird — her name is Rebecca — could be his first real friend. But as desperate as Jason is to meet her, he’s terrified that if they do meet, Rebecca will only see his autism and not who Jason really is.

By acclaimed writer Nora Raleigh Baskin, this is the breathtaking depiction of an autistic boy’s struggles—and a story for anyone who has ever worried about fitting in.

Critique About Books Anything But Typical

I know this story is mostly about Jason, about how he deals with his autism, but to me the real strength of this story lies in the minor characters.Jason's dad nearly made me cry more than once, because he knows his son has his own way to communicate and just because his way is different doesn't mean it's bad different. He's always supporting his son, making sure that everybody understands that Jason isn't stupid.Jeremy, Jason's little brother, was absolutely adorable, I just wanted to hug him



I really enjoy books about characters on the spectrum (I am on the spectrum myself). I thoroughly enjoyed The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-time, Rules, Marcelo in the Real World, and 600 Hours of Edward (I particularly enjoyed those last two). So you could say that I had pretty high hopes for Anything But Typical, but unfortunately I was disappointed. Without giving anything away, I'll just say that the ending was a dud. It didn't really resolve anything which really annoyed me.

Okay, so I read this in High School a few years ago but....is the person who wrote actually Autistic, or just another neurotypical who thinks they know Autistic people better than Actually Autistic people?Because this story is just the stereotypical white boy that doesn't know how to interact with people.It doesn't even show an accurate way Autistics stim; yes, some of us rock or flap hands, but some of us hum, some of us tap our feet, and some of us even use echolalia as a stim for

Wow! This book surprised me with how good it was because I picked it up in the kids' chapter books section of the library, so I thought it would be a light, fluffy read. And while it didn't make me cry, or anything, it was an interesting (and sometimes sobering) look at the world of autism. Anything But Typical reminded me of Wonder in a lot of ways (though, of course, Auggie's not autistic) and I'd recommend it to those who love that book. The writing was beautiful, in its own way, and the

"Why do people want everyone to act just like they do? Talk like they do. Look like they do. Act like they do. And if you don't If you don't, people make the assumption that you do not feel what they feel. And then they make the assumption That you must not feel anything at all. " Jason Blake, Anything But Typical, P. 14 In my view, this is easily the greatest story delving into the mind of a kid whose mind operates differently than those of his peers since the acclaimed Joey Pigza
