Review of Life, animated: A story of sidekicks, heroes, and autism

Glawe, Charles J
Reviews the book, Life, Animated: A Story of Sidekicks, Heroes, and Autism by Ron Suskind (2014). The book is not about autism and it is not even a story of a boy with autism. At times while experiencing Life, Animated, the reviewer thought that it was the story of a parent and family coming to understand and cope with a child with autism. The book, in fact, could be read with that idea in mind and still be an immensely rewarding experience for anyone who treats or works with children with autism and their families. In the end, however, the story is much more universal than that. It is the story of a father coming to know his son. It is the story of members of a family coming to know themselves. It is the story of a child's unique experience of his internal and external worlds. Beyond showing us the experience families have in dealing with difficult mental illness and disability or suggesting unique ways of engaging with children who might communicate in a different way, the book expands what one thinks of as the human experience. It suggests that experiencing life in a way that is considered more normative in the spectrum of human experience is not necessarily a better or right way to see things.
