Book Reviews of Lucy's Story: Autism and Other Adventures
Book Review: Lucy is an amazing woman.
Summary: 5 Stars
Lucy's book is wonderful, playful, highly intelligent and utterly tell it like it is. Her book introduces the reader not only to the little known world of facilitated communication (through typing) but also to her relationship with her colorful quirky family and her life in Australia. Having met Lucy many times, I know she is as much an inspiration to people through this book as she is to those who meet her.

Summary of Lucy's Story: Autism and Other Adventures
This is Lucy's story. Born with autism, Lucy could not understand much of what was said around her. Her own language came later from newspapers and books. Lucy's language developed in a world of her own making, even now she does not answer questions in the same way as other people.Biographies & Memoirs Books
