Have you ever encountered a child who acts differently, such as being bossy, screaming, disrespecting his parents, and asked yourself, why does this child behave like this? Is it uninformed parenting or something else altogether?
Parents and teachers alike will discover a helpful tool in dealing with these situations in the new children’s book entitled, “Why Is He Different?” Written by Kristine Byrnside and Linda Fox
"Why Is He Different" is about a young boy in the 1st grade named Kyle who suffers from ADHD and PDD-NOS. Kyle’s unique qualities endear him to his classmates at times, and disturb them at others. The story is told through the eyes of his best friend, a compassionate young boy who despite knowing Kyle’s differences befriends him.
This book was inspired by Linda Fox, the mother of a boy whose life is very similar to that of the child in this story. Mrs. Fox’s son endured much of the same misunderstandings and teasing that many children do who are diagnosed with conditions within the Autism Spectrum.
The story’s purpose is to bring about awareness and provide a forum that will open up discussions and promote tolerance and acceptance of these children whose disabilities may not be understood by school-age children.
