It is even more difficult for them to "fit in" in social and educational settings. This book has been written for parents, teachers, and children; it is an amiable story of how a child with Asperger's may experience life and friendship.

Life can be overwhelming, frustrating, and just downright confusing for them at times. I Am Wren lends a quirky look at the language of how Wren processes the world. Wren knows that it is okay to be Wren, even if he only has one friend

Greg Reid shares lessons learned as a cowboy/stockman, radio announcer, and writer in Queensland, Australia, in this memoir.
