Four books about autism

These four books help provide a better understanding of autism:
 The Reason I Jump by Naoki Higashida. This invaluable book, written by a 13-year-old boy using a cardboard keyboard, provides astounding insight into a mind so acutely wired it is overwhelmed by every impulse and sensation.
The Autistic Brain by Temple Grandin, one of the world's most accomplished and well-known adults with autism.
The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time by Mark Haddon features an autistic protagonist. 
The Panicosaurus by K.I. Al-Ghani is a book for children, parents and teachers about managing anxiety, with particular consideration of Asperger Syndrome.
