david, a real boy

i just finished read this book, believe me im reading a book. If i read a book there must be some aberration of this book compare others. For real its not some, but lots. Isn't like those fucking typical romance books, A Real Boy has touched me by a true story of david and his family. A very moving and interesting account of living with autism. I liked the way the vulnerability and the fragility of David's life was shown with such love and poignancy. Often (unintentionally) autistic children are protrayed as frightening destructive creatures because they don't understand the rules of life. This book showed us, as far as is possible, how the world looks from the point of view of the child.
