Other than that it's about dogs. Fact books about dogs,

training them, caring for them, breed info etc... Both of these fixations have

been life long. Today we went to Barns & Nobel because I had to

return something. I went over the entire plan with him before we

left the house. I also told him that we would not be buying

anything there today. Well, he asked if I would please buy him the Star

Wars Dictionary

*****************Hi Charlotte, just

had to comment on this as one of ’s current issues is Star Wars and

yes he has several books…try a used book store. got several paper

backs, a series, from one. The problem is book six was not there, so every time

we are in the city we have to check. I am going to try and find it on line or I

could be very old looking for this book every 2 weeks. We also have a stack of

books on dogs. If you want to make really happy during summer vacation,

or now!, buy him Simon & Schuster’s Guide To Dogs…great book…Funny

story, was at Oral Surgery when he was 9 and was just going under when the

Dentist said, “I bet you can’t guess what I have for a dog, it

starts with a V”. replied “Vizsla”, just as he passed

out…the dentist couldn’t believe it as this was correct….actually

dog conversations are good ice breakers. has fallen back on this many

times when he was nervous or just interested what kinds of dogs

people had. He also knows a lot about cats,,,,,At

least his interests have always been something we don’t mind learning

about except maybe Star Wars. He has started writing to a kid on line about

Star Wars. This is part of their school work. It is very hard for him and the

other boy to think of questions, answers and to write, so this is a real start.

Get the dog book as I bet you’ll enjoy it yourself….Gail

Thanks Gail, I was telling about and some of the other kids of parents I have met online, and he is just totally blown away by the fact that all these kids as so similar to him. He's never really met anyone like himself. There is one other Aspie boy in his school and grade but this child has several other disabilities as well and "looks" like he has them. His sensory issues are so bad that he needs to wear industrial head phones 90% of the time. So , although he gets along with this child, does not totally relate to him. He asked me if he could meet some of these kids I speak of and I told him I would check out local Aspie chapter to see if anyone was close.
