I'm Not Naughty - I'm Autistic - Jodi's Journey
UNDERSTANDING AUTISM
A compelling, true story which will have you both laughing and crying. This incredibly easy to read book containing photographs and poetry is a fascinating, funny and insightful account of living with an autistic child. Written by his mother but told from Jodi's perspective this story will really help reassure people about autism.
Jodi has a very self restricted diet. After developing regressive autism he would only eat things that were round and beige or brown. His diet has improved considerably following safe detoxification of heavy metals,which incorporated Seagreens® balanced vitamin and mineral seaweed natural health products. He still won't eat fruit or vegetables, has very little dairy, yet remains incredibly fit and healthy. We are convinced that daily optimum nutrition from the small amounts of balanced natural vitamins, minerals and vital nutrients found in Seagreens® seaweed natural health products is the key to his good health.
Foreword from I'm Not Naughty -
I'm Autistic - Jodi's Journey
Jodi's Journey is written for no one in particular and everyone in general. It is the story of his life so far, interspersed with some of the little facets of autism. The writer hopes it will give a small insight into this invisible, inexplicable and, thus far, apparantly incurable disability. I am Jodi's mother and have written the story as though he is the narrator. Jodi does not use language. He says words and that is not the same thing. There are situations in this story therefore when I can only presume to know what he was thinking or why he did something. Only one person knows for certain and he is not disclosing that information - yet!

other readers thought of this book.
"I loved this book (I'm Not Naughty - I'm Autistic), from the attractive front cover right through to the "rules" (some of the best I've seen), the poetry and the photographs. Writing as Jodi was an excellent idea
and really makes people understand (about autism), better than writing about Jodi. I do hope
that it will become widely read." -Zelda Landau, Director, Light and Sound Therapy Centre, London
“Thankyou very much for I’m Not Naughty I’m Autistic- Jodi’s Journey. It provided me with a fascinating insight into the world of autism in a very readable form. I have learnt a great deal from the book and I will look with new eyes at the more ‘difficult’ children I see or work with. Some of your approaches seem to me equally relevant to children with other conditions too.
I think the book has enlarged both my understanding and my humanity. I hope so anyway. Though written from, or told from, Jodi’s perspective it gives a real insight into the huge challenges faced by the families and, in your case especially, the mother. Take a bow!” – P Smith, Downham Market, UK
You can buy both books from Amazon but if you'd like them signed by Jodi and myself you need to order them direct from this site.
