Product Description
All Cats Have Asperger Syndrome takes a playful look at Asperger Syndrome (AS), drawing inspiration from the feline world in a way that will strike a chord with all those who are familiar with AS.
Delightful color photographs of cats bring to life familiar characteristics such as sensitive hearing, scampering at the first sign of being stroked and particular eating habits.
Touching, humorous and insightful, this book evokes the difficulties and joys of raising a child who is different and leaves the reader with a sense of the dignity, individuality and potential of people with AS.
This engaging book is an ideal, gentle introduction to the world of AS.

 Excellent simple to read June 22, 2008
This is an excellent simple to read book. Very good for young and older people. My sons and I have read many times over. I would recommend to anyone!
 Full Of Humorous Pictures & Expressions on AS! June 4, 2008
At first, I just wondered why cats appear in this book because I wasn't quite sure what cats had to do with Asperger Syndrome. But, on second thought, Kathy Hoopmann might help parents with AS kids increase their understanding. Even adults with AS are sure to see what AS is like because she illustrated AS not only by words but pictures! We can't put down this book just because it's for kids only!
If possible, I'd have liked her to explain in advance why she associated cats with AS.

I'm an SLP with a son who is autistic. I purchased this for my kids' cousins to help educate them. This book is compassionate, truthful, and witty. Great for all ages. Highly recommend it!!
Amazing Book May 26, 2008
Great book for everyone who knows someone in the Autism spectrum. Great Kitty pictures. Great Message. Love it
A must-have for anyone with Asperger's in the family! May 19, 2008
We recently learned that our son has Asperger's Syndrome. So I bought this book for all three of his Grandmothers for Mother's Day, and hope that they all have learned from it. As soon as I saw this in a local bookstore and leafed through it, I fell in love with the book! Yes, there are lots of charming cat pictures, but it is far more than just cute. I love the humorous way that it explains Asperger's. Very entertaining and informative!
