Eloquent. Philosophical. Introspective. These are not the words usually associated with an autistic child. But in a remarkable display of courage and creativity, a boy named Tito has shattered stereotypes, and in The Mind Tree makes us question all of our previous assumptions about autism. For Tito is severely autistic and nearly nonverbal, and this is his story.

Amazing read!,

This review is from: The Mind Tree (Paperback)
I have a 14 year old non-verbal autistic son and each time I picked up the book I was moved to tears. Reading Tito's book was, for me, like getting some insight into my son's thoughts. Tito's behaviors and fears matched so perfectly with some of my sons. Tito seems to be a very insightful young man. I found the book interesting, moving, even humorous at some points. I would definitely recommend that anyone who has a child who is autistic, or knows someone who does, read this book.

A must read,
By Miss Abla Hisheh "Hisheh" (California) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Mind Tree (Paperback)
The Mind Tree is the best book I have ever read on Autism. For the first time I was able to understand what goes inside the mind of an autistic child. I first bought the book for myself, and subsequently have bought 5 copies for friends or aquaintances who have a loved one with Autism.
5.0 out of 5 stars

The Mind Tree is a great read written by a young man who has autism and is nonverbal. It gives wonderful insight into what he is thinking and feeling through his lifespan. Thank you Tito!!!
