Truly Inspiring.....An Eye Opener, Nov. 28 2007
My son is 35 years old and it wasn't until 11/14/07 that an acquaintance mentioned to me that my son may have Asperger's. I delved into everything I could find online only to come to the conclusion that without a doubt this is what he has. I purchased this book and could not put it down. The similarities are uncanny. This book opened my eyes into understanding the thought process in a different light. John's story is truly inspiring by having overcome so many hurdles and has been a Godsend to me after all of these years. Thank you so much John Elder!

A must-have for your library!, Nov. 27 2007
You don't expect a book about Asperger's to be funny, but it is. I loved this book. I have a nephew with Asperger's, and reading this book has helped me to understand him on a human level.
I would highly recommend this book to all schools as a reference, and to anyone who wants to feel what an Aspergian feels. It was a terrific read, cover to cover!

Perspective, Nov. 26 2007
As a mom to a child on the autism spectrum, I have read a lot of books about autism. In my quest to learn as much as I possibly can about how to help and understand my son, I read whatever I can get my hands on. Most of the books I have read are somewhat hopeless and depressing or are from a parents perspective. John Elder Robison is aspergian, and he is writing from his own experiences. He really explained the reasoning behind some of his behaviors as a child, and they totally made perfect sense to me. This book is funny in parts, sad in parts, but very real and very enjoyable. Plus the fact- you get to hear about John's adventures on the road with Kiss.

Harnessing Aspergers, Fév 20 2008
I've got a 10 year old nephew with Aspergers, and the focus he puts on ordinary items is scarey. This book shows that Aspergians have unique skills, and can be a fun part of life. Fun as in touring with Kiss, designing electronic devices, and restoring prestige cars!

A "must-read" book!!, Déc 2 2007
I work with a child who has Aspergers. I found the book to be VERY insightful to me and has helped me see the classroom through his perspective, somewhat (because I know everyone is different). I am excited to have found new ways to to make him feel understood and help him find his area of special interest to guide him on ways to be a successful adult. Thank you John Elder, for writing this book. I think that it will inspire alot of other people, as it has me. It was a blessing for me to read.

Help for the entire family, Nov. 29 2007
My husband discovered this book first and passed it on to my daughter & me. We began the cd and could not stop. (Daughter is 16). It explains so much of our son (15)that nothing else has. We have since ordered the book and the CD for our son's psychologist. I can't possibly praise enough. Our son listened and was electrified. He recognized himself repeatedly and it made him feel so much better about himself. I would love to give John Robison a big hug and his brother, too, for requesting he write this. Morgan Gainor

Look Me In the Eye, Nov. 28 2007
Look Me In the Eye is a must have for those with children on the autism spectrum. Throughout the book, Robison takes the reader through his "Aspergian," thought process, offering insight into why he did what he did or said what he said at certian ages. LMITE is a funny, poignant, tender story about a man who succeeded against the odds, in a world he did not fully understand. As a parent of a child on the spectrum, I am grateful for this peek inside and for the inspiration Robison provides.
Asperger's or not, this is a great story, a terrific read.

From the mother of a freshly diagnosed ASD child, Nov. 26 2007
I am incredibly grateful that John Elder Robison wrote this.
As a parent you hope that you can help shape your children to grow into successful (success measured by happiness) adults. This book has turned what was a dream into a realistic goal of my son being able to function and connect to the society/community he chooses to participate in when he reaches adulthood.
So many of the traits owned by him are owned by my son. For this reason to have the thought processes he went through clearly articulated is of immeasureable assistance to a parent such as myself.

Look Me in the Eye: My Life With Asperger's, Nov. 26 2007
Amazing. Educational. Inspiring. Laugh Out Loud Funny.
This book is not just for people affected by Asperger's. It is for
educators, therapists, medical doctors, etc. It is for any person
that felt left out, confused by social situations, or not picked for
the kickball team.
You will laugh, you may cry, you will be educated and you will
definitely be inspired. It is almost hard to believe that John is a
first time author, his writing is THAT GOOD.
Despite not being diagnosed well until adulthood, John Elder just
kept trudging along and was successful long before he wrote this
book. John brings home the message that anyone, anywhere,
can overcome any obstacle.
This book left me realizing that the world needs more people
like John Elder, additionally the world needed John Elder to
publish this book. For all those aspergians that may be in hiding,
it is safe for you to come out now.

A deeply insightful and entertaining read, Nov. 26 2007
This book was a rare delight. John Robison has a warm and gentle giant persona that makes Look Me in the Eye completely enjoyable. From the first page, you will feel as though he's just invited you to pull up a chair next to him. His story and the individual struggles he's faced and overcome as an Aspergian are heart-rending and will surely speak to the masses. I've not only recommended it to others, I bought half a dozen copies for friends and family.
